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?

Email please

Thanx in advance
