Theoretically they should behave just as a 72 pin SIMM.

A friend of mine has tried one though. When two 4mb 72 pin SIMMs plus 4 1mb 30 
pin SIMMs on the converter were on board, the converted RAM was ignored. Only 
when the converted RAM was the ONLY RAM in the system did it work.

Using a Gigabyte 486 PCI board with onboard EIDE and serial etc.
