Don, Did I promise you an answer on some DRAM questions? If so, I apparently dropped the ball! If my memory serves me, the difference between the 51 and the 41 versions of DRAMS is that the 41's are an NMOS process and 51's are a CMOS process. In most cases, like the 2630, this should not be a problem. To be certain of the situation though, please let me know who the manufacturer is. Dean Brown DKB

Dean, No, you didn't drop the ball…I had simply posted a message to you asking if the 51xxxx parts were equivalent to the 41xxxx parts since I got a set of 16 MCM514256AZ10 chips and wanted to use them in a 2620. They are Motorola parts. So anyway…what do you think? Can they be used in an A2620 to bring it up to 4 Meg? Don

Don, I don't see why not, but I will check for sure tomorrow in the Motorola data book. Dean Brown DKB
