Mac II series computers will work just fine with 150ns >SIMM chips. For all normal use, there is no apparent slow down at all. In According to Apple if you use chips slower than 120ns in a 020 or 030 class machine it might result in "data loss". In other words if you start having memory problems and you're using 150ns chips Apple won't do anything to fix it other than "upgrade" your chips for you. Perhaps some hardware type on the net could explain why the 020 and 030 in Apple's products require 120ns or better chips. -- \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\|///////////////////////////////////////// David M.
