According to the nice woman at Apple (customer relations dept.) 120ns
chips are fine for the SE/30.  Look at your 1 meg chips -- if the last
2 #'s are <= 12, you're fine (says her).  She also said that 120 ns
chips would be fine for future 68030-based machines running at 33MHz
(again, says her).  Keep in mind that these are the same people who
told me that A/UX can't run on the SE/30 cause the SE/30 can't support
a 80 meg drive.  

>I would hustle out and get a 1 meg SIMM but this SE/30 business has me

Also, you would have to hustle out and get 4 256K SIMMs or 4 1 meg SIMMs!
