I tried putting some extra Mac II SIMMs into an LW II NTX and found
to my chagrin that they wouldn't fit.  I presume the only thing that
your spare LW SIMMs are good for is for putting into other LWs.  Perhaps
there is some good technical reason for this, and for LW SIMMs being
3-6% cheaper than Mac SIMMs?
