The Sparc LC (and I think the LX is the same?) can only use 4 and 16 meg
72 pin parity SIMM's. I don't know if 36-bit ones will work, but I presume
that like the IPX/ELC, they can use either 33-bit or 36-bit as long as the
types (33-bit or 36-bit) aren't mixed. 32-bit (ie. no parity) SIMM's won't
work though.

Craig.
