->.... Bios could be the Microid bios.  But I'm not certain they would use
->this since Microid is a new bios that just was released not to long ago. 
->And the only other vendors that use it are PC Brand.  Microid is VERY
->compatible.

  This may be out in left field, but the spec sheet for the "old" 486-25/33's
  from Micro Generation list the maximum RAM at 16Mb.  The tech I talked
  to (in person) says the current motherboard support a maximum of 32Mb
  if 4Mb SIMMS are used.  It's possible that their new bios (MR or ?)
  was the quickest/easiest way to get 32Mb...?
