I think it's a DEC 3000/900 (I'm at college and the computer went home,
so I haven't really had a chance to look at it yet). At any rate, the
RAM is a non-standard size. I belive its 100 pin.

I thought I was being clever when I bought a cheap DEC 3000/400 (I think)
for the RAM, but it turns out the 400 had 60ns RAM, while my 900 required
70ns.

I've probably got some of those numbers wrong as I haven't really had a
chance to look at the systems yet, but the gist is the RAM I need is the
non-standard variety, probably 100 pin, and needs to be 70ns.

Thanks, and sorry about the off-topic post.
