Well, I don't have the tool, so it is a moot point.  

This will get me a 4x250Mhz/1mb + 4x250Mhz/4mb = 8 way E4000 system.

Assuming all the RAM is used, I will end up with about 5.5GB RAM
(might try to move a few pieces around in order to get 4 or 8 way
interleave).

Sweeeeeet.

This page seems to say "as long as you don't have 167Mhz's anywhere in
the system, you are OK" :

Cordially
