[rescue] Cheap MXI Octane

[Corda Albert J DLVA]

If you look closely, you'll notice that there are 2 simms.  My
memory is a bit vague, but I seem to recall that Origin 200
simms are populated from the opposing outer slots moving inward,
thus the first bank would be two simms, each one on opposite
ends of the two simm slot banks.

BTW, this is only a Single CPU Orign 200. Note the missing second
CPU  (lower left-hand part of the photo.) Unfortunately, you can't
just add a second CPU. You have to replace the entire CPU module
with a Dual-CPU module.

And I also agree that the price is a bit much for what is included...
