32mb is the limit that the 2000xl can use.
Yes you can put more than 32mb of RAM in a 2000xl.
Problem is it will still only use 32 and increase the probablity of intermittent problems.

yeah he was totally lying and got caught.. before posting here i wrote to him and asked him how he managed that. i think he read this forum cuz he wrote me again all like "sorry, i was wrong, im selling it for a friend, it has 32 MB"

maybe he's telling the truth but in his initial reply to me he said "Hi, I bought two 64MB chips and added to the MPC 2000XL."

uh, yeah. i dunno, maybe he's telling the truth and just had his info wrong. he did change it in the auction description and title hmm. it says 32mb now.

thanks for getting my back everybody

i think im picking up an XL tonight (not the one from the auction, a local one). finally moving away from the buggy, busted pain in the a ss that has been the mpc1000

i guess technically he never did lie then . but i think it's fair to say the implication was a lie (that the XL functioned with 128mb of usable memory) . advertising it as that was still wrong though.
