I just bought a used computer (no manuals, ooops) and when I poped open the
case I see 4 SIMM slots (with 2 1x9 MB SIMMs) and what look like a bunch of
DRAM slots (slots? plugs? things you put DRAM in). Does this mean I can have
both SIMMS and DRAM in my computer at the same time? 

Normally I'd just get SIMMS but I happen to have a bunch of 256k drams that
would fill the board. Is there anything special I need to do to install both?
Anyone elso have experience in these type of mother boards?

BTW it's a 386sx-20 if that helps.

thanks,etc.
