Here is the rule:  As long as the chips are at least as fast as the
system requires, it is ok to mix speeds.  This means that you can put
120ns, 100ns, 80ns, 70ns, etc into any MacII (except the IIci).  You
can put any of the above and 150ns chips into an SE or a Plus (the
SE/30 needs 120 or better).

Has anyone heard anything about when we can get 4MB SIMMS firthe mac
in quantity?  (for a reasonable price?)
