        Well, yeah, what else would you be doing? like I would really be
begging. How un-geek-like. :-P

        Well, my 3000/400 uses, I believe, 100-pin memory SIMMs. Looks like
regular PC EDO stuff from a distance. But they're really abut 5 or 6 inches
long. There are 4 daughterboards, in the /400, each of which holds 4 SIMMs,
totaling 16 100-pins SIMMs in there...
