I have the opportunity to buy some DRAM chips at a blow away price!
These are 256 X 1 120ns DRAM chips.
My Ram Expansion Unit uses 256 X1 150ns chips.  I recently upgraded my
REU 1764 to 512K and want to push it up to 1 or 2 Meg.  Can I use these
120 nanosecond chips with the 150's that are already in there?

If not - what will`the problem be; what does the problem "look like" to
the computer.  If I can use them, what should I watch for; what potential
problems exist with the mis-match?

Thanks in advance for the the aid and info!
