Not a chance. The DEC 3000 use completely different memory boards
(not even SIMMs). IMHO, the memory boards in those machines look more
like christmas trees than SIMMs. Actually, the DEC 3000's memory
system is pretty fast (e.g., a DEC 3000/600 gets about 100MB/sec in
one of McCalpin loops whereas the Cabriolet gets about 90MB/sec; an
AlphaStation 4/233 is around 80MB/sec).
