Don't be so sure that they will work... The Mac II supposedly supports
256K, 1 meg, 4 meg, etc... SIMMs, but there are some bugs on the boards.

Apparently, the max may be 8 megs.  So plug in 4 4Meg SIMMS would either give
you a 8Meg machine, or nothing at all.

There was a discussion about the possibility of using 4 meg simms in a II a
couple of months back, and the conclusion was that it could go either way.

there may be a minor bug fix in one of the revisions of the motherboard.
