IPX memory will work in the Classic/LX boxes, but it's not the right spec.
The IPX only requires 80 ns sticks, but the Classic/LX wants 60, I think.
Really maxing a Classic/LX requires two 32 meg sticks (in bank 0) and four
16 meggers in the other two banks, for a total of 128 MB. I have a couple
of machines set up like that, and they work fine. The memory is FPM 36-bit
real parity.
