>Can you tell me (and others) how to get the 'ns' rating of RAM from the series of numbers on the chips?  I know there's some code that's not hard to figure out once someone tells you what it is.

Easy ... after the part number on the chip (usally looks like 41C1000 or
something similar for a 1M chip) there is a number preceded by a dash,
eg -15 = 150ns
   -12 = 120ns
   -10 = 100ns
   -8  =  80ns
	etc

sometimes this number is multiplied by ten, othertimes it cam be the full speed
as in -150 = 150ns etc etc.
