I know this has been hashed over, but MacConnection seems to be unable
to answer this question about the 1Mb SIMMS I just bought.  Written on
the chips is:

JAPAN S000
8919 BNQ
HM511000 JP12S

I took this to mean they are 120ns; MacConnection said they would be
100ns.  When I called them they said there was no way to tell from the
numbers.

This can't be true -- can anyone decode the numbers?  Email would be
fine, as I know this group doesn't need any more discussions about
this.  If anyone else wants to know the answer mail me and I will reply.

BTW, This is not a flame of MacConnection -- I have rarely found a
company as wonderful and service-oriented as they.  I am only afraid
they may be in error.
