Subject: Can I use  MB SIMMs in a Mac IIcx?

I just acquired a Mac capable of having memory added to it (meaning I've 
been living with an _old_ machine for a long time now!), a Mac IIcx.

Is it possible to use 4 MB SIMMs in a machine like this?  I've
seen some discussion of people with 17 MB machines, but the memory
in excess of 8MB was allocated only to the System.  So 
I guess I should ask - can I add 4 MB SIMMs and then use them?

Thanks for any help in this - I guess I should have paid attention
if/when this subject came up before, but  I never thought
I'd be able to afford a more up-to-date Mac!.
