According to the "monitor" in 1.0, the first 8 meg are page mode simms, and the second 8 meg are nibble mode simms. The question is,why are they mixed like this, and does it hurt the speed of the machine that they are not all page mode (or not all nibble mode, for that matter)? Any clarification would be greatly appreciated. Nick Katz nmk@math.princeton.edu
