We're thinking of buying more 256K memory boards from DEC (MS750-AA) to
replace our aging independent memory and bring allegra up to a whopping
2 meg.  The sales rep is pushing, for about the same price as 4 256k
boards, MS750-HB, which is a new controller (newer than the controller
for 1-meg boards that everyone seems to have) and 2 4-meg boards.  We'd
like to know how reliable this memory is, as well as any changes to the
4.2bsd kernel that may be necessary to support it.
