[rescue] Re: HP9000 RAM compatibly chart

[Gavin Hubbard]

Partsurfer will only give you half of the truth as HP is notorious for
selling the same part with twenty different part numbers for twenty
different systems.

FWIW the B132L takes the same sort of SIMMs that you find in D/R/K servers
and older B/C/J workstations.

I thought E55 didn't use SIMMs but rather a huge module with an IDC-like
connector? Perhaps I am thinking of an older system.

Gavin
