Buffered 5V parity JEDEC DIMMs, 8MB or 32MB.  They are the same type as
the DIMMs used in most PowerMacs but with parity, so SS4/SS5 DIMMs will
work in a PowerMac but not the other way around.

www.memoryx.com has fairly good prices.  You'll not find many PC's that
use this spec memory.  The 200-pin DIMMs used in the SS10, SS20 and Ultra
1/2/30/60/80/2x0/4x0 are Sun-specific though fairly cheap.
