I have a question sort of the same, but a little skewed. I have a 486-33
running 4Meg of 70ns SIMMS. A friend of mine has some parts lying around
and I came across four 1Meg SIMMS, 2 of the SIMMS are 60ns and 2 are 70ns.
Could I install these with no problems? He's practically giving them to me
so could somebody help me out with this one. If so what would be the bes
configuration. I mean put the 60ns in bank 0, first ones or shoudl they be
put as the last SIMMS in bank 1 way at the back of the bus so to speak?
