subject: Win9x Memory Question

Once upon a time, I got into a discussion in one of the Windows echos
regarding the 95 and 98SE versions of Windows and their memory usage.
 
IIRC, I was told that 95 will work with up to 96MB RAM, after which any
more is mostly wasted & not really accessed.  Simularly, IIRC that 98SE
will only really work with 128MB RAM, after which any more is mostly
wasted & not really accessed.
 
Is this true?  I have a P2-266 machine with 128MB running 98SE.  I
either have a spare 64MB chip, or a 32MB chip (depending on how I
configure another system).  Would the machine benefit at all by
being bumped up another 32MB or 64MB?
 
For that matter, will 98SE run fine on a P-200MMX with only 64MB RAM?
