I don't understand this...you took non-parity simms and turned them into
parity simms? Can you explain (again:) how you did this? I'm pretty handy
with a soldering iron and I have quite a bit of money invested in the RAM
in my current machine. I'm going to be quite bummed if I have sell all of
it (at a substantial loss) so I can buy parity RAM when I upgrade to an
Alpha.
