	I recently ordered an accelerator board for my SE and it has
	the capability to use ram that is installed on the accelerator
	(32-bit wide).  I ordered 4 low-profile, 1-Mbyte SIMMs, but,
	when I installed them and tried to re-install the SE
	motherboard into the SE chassis, it wouldn't fit because the
	RAMs were too high.  These SIMMs are 21mm in height.  I got 2
	other SIMMs (TI) last year just for memory expansion, these are 17mm
	tall.  I installed these, and the board fit like a glove.
	So: does anyone know if there is a standard height for 
	"low-profile" SIMMs?  Also does anyone know where I can
	get 17mm, 70ns SIMMS?
