If what Neo Sze Wee has is 4 30-pin slots, it is not all that simple to
find memory to upgrade with, but I think we have 4 4M 30-pin SIMMs around
that I don't mind mailing to the other side of the world. I get the
impression, however, that he enjoys challenges and prefers to work with 4M
RAM and a 25MHz cpu with possibly a broken coprocessor. I could also mail
a 66MHz cpu - if there are onboard instructions as to how to set the
jumpers for 2 x 33 instead of 1 x 25.
