These questions are directed to people who really know the answers

    There is a lot of talk about new big SIMMS which will hold 4Megs, so
I should be able to put four of these in my Mac SE30 to get 20 Megs total
(I have 4Meg now).  Somewhere along the line I heard that the MAC will not
recognise this added memory (except when using AUX ?) Is this true, am I
saving my empty SIMM slots for nothing ?  Should I buy the relatively
cheap 1 Meg SIMMS to give me 8Meg (should I wait for System 7.0 and get
virtual 8Meg ?  BTW if you already have 8 Meg will Virtual Mem be any
benefit ? Besides faster)
   Any way, basically will 4 Meg (or larger) SIMMS work on the Macs or not.
                                                         Thank you,
                                                         Michael.
