I was wondering if people could help me out.  I am trying to populate
some nexts's with ram but i'm not 100% sure what I need.  Below are
the machines and in the parens are my comments.  If people could tell
me if I am right or wrong, that would be great.  Email is preferred.
NextStation
 (I am pretty sure that this machine has 8 slots and can accept either
  1 or 4 meg simms.  As to the parity, i have heard that if you use
 all parity ram that you can tell the next to use it, but you can't mix
 parity and non parity ram in the same machine) 

NextStation Turbo
 (4 slots on this one that it takes a 32bit simms.  These simms come
 in 4 8 or 16 meg modules.  Any of these modules should work to
 populate the board.)

NextStation Turbo Color
 (Same as above, but I have heard that you can't but the 16meg modules
 in to the machine since they won't all fit.  I can't prove/disprove
 this but it came from someone at nextconnection)

Thanks for all the information in advance.  Also, if this happens to
be a faq, could someone tell me where it is.

The FAQs are posted to comp.sys.next.announce.  The file you should
refer to is FAQ.memory...
