     Does anyone have experience upgrading the system board RAM in their
     IBM Model 30-286 ??  I presently have all 4 SIMM banks filled with
     120 nsec. 256Kx9 SIMMs for a total of 1 MB.  I would like to put
     4 MB of 1MBx9 SIMMs in instead, at the sacrifice of discarding the
     memory already there.  Since I don't want to pay IBM's huge prices
     (for their 2MB "kits"), I would like to know if I can use ordinary
     3rd-party SIMMs.  Any help is appreciated.
