   They might be - they're just not guaranteed to be all over the normal
temperature range, or some other marginal spec.

   In the manual, it's clearly documented that you need 80 ns parts, so that's
what I did.

   Unitex offered me a price of $60, so don't expect it to be better at the 
moment. But compare that to prices of ram boards - any 2M boards at $240 ?

   Or get yourself 16 1M parts, and upgrade further when the 4M parts are
down at $30.

   Mine had a 40, but that was back in May. Others say they do.
