Re: 270 memory (was Cume PTFs)

Joe,

 I have some significant experience here.....

 The DIMMs for many of the single CPU 270s and the i810s are virtually 
exactly the same stuff. Tried them and they even report in as the 
correct feature!. Woo Hoo! They unfortunately also report in as 0MB. 
Booo.  Discussions with people in Rochester that know this stuff say 
'Sorry, close doesn't count.'

 Now for your i820 memory vs the i270 memory the 270 memory is DDR 
while the i820 stuff is not. So itnoworkie.
