Can anyone say what 4 Mbyte SIMMs can be bought to fit the NeXTstation 
slab, currently with 8x1 Mb SIMMs installed?  I have no info about what
type of memory is required, except a note from the Nov_90_NextAnswers
which states that 8 data bit, no parity, 30 pin SIMMs, with speeds better
than 100 ns, are required --- but for what?  Nextstation or Cube or both?
I'd buy from NeXT, but no one is flush with cash up here right now.

Furthermore, does the replacement of 4 of the 1 Mb SIMMs leave one with
4x1 and 4x4 = 20 Mbytes of usable memory in the slab, and has anyone used the
1 Mbyte SIMMs that have been removed from the slab in a Mac II?

Apologies if a form of this query appeared already, I posted it last night
but we had some problem with the news.
