Yes I have quite a few ex 386SX-20 Diskless workstations circa 1993.
Er small? Was there more than one size.
These are the same size as the equivalent simm, and can be converted to same
by CAREFULLY removing the pins and the solder. (Not easy, but I have done
it and made it work on occasion - though only when desperate it's a real
PITA)
