On a related note- there was a suggestion dropped on the list pertaining
to the SPARCstation LX being able to take 8 and 32MEG modules in the first
bank... I would like to confirm that this indeed is true, at least for the
8MEGs, as I witnessed such a spectacle- 8's in bank 1, 16's in bank 2, and
4's in bank 3... for a grand total of 56MEGs (8+8 + 16+16 + 4+4).

More or less proprietary hardware- need the SunPC software (available for
SunOS or Solaris)... would be nice though :)
