Sounds nifty little though of know of these kinds of needs.
Maybe with those slots we could scare up some donations for more RAM. Right
now 256 Mb of PC133 RAM is going for $114 out here.
[I remember when the state agency I was with was so proud that they had
acquired another meg of 'core storage' {ask if you don't know what that
was/is} for just less that $1 million ]
