Sorry for posting before a careful inspection of the
new SIMMs.  One of the Goldstar 4MB SIMMS had a metal
burr soldered over two connectors where the parity
chip would normally be located.  I am returning all
of these SIMMs to the Chip Mercant in San Diego.

Do Macs totally ignore the parity lines and therefore
this defect wasn't detected?
