Dear All,

We are looking at using a VME memory card to extend the
16MB of memory that we currently have on our "mv167's"
to 64MB.

I've been warned that getting the extra memory card working
is not necessarily a trivial matter. On top of that, I 
understand that access to this extra memory is going to be
very slow (when compared to the original 16MB).

I would be very interested to hear of others experiences at
doing this. In particular:

(a) Which memory module did you use and how much did it cost?
(b) Was it easy to configure? Did it have any nasty side effects?
(c) Is the access speed a problem?

Many thanks,

Andy
