Nothing bogus about it..... Before I recently upgraded, I ran a 386/DX-33 
with 4 1MB 80ns 30 pin SIMMS in the first bank, and 4 70ns in the second. 
Even more interesting to note, was that the 80ns SIMMs in the 1st bank were 
of two different types, 3 chip, and 9 chip....  Never had much trouble with 
it, either.  Those are FACTS.
