I have a GS-Sauce card that uses SIMMS.  I don't know for sure 
where you would get one today.  For that matter, I'm not even 
sure where I got it in the first place.  As to whether the IBM 
SIMMS will fit / work in this card (or any other made for an 
Apple) is debateable.  I don't think they will because they 
include a parity bit (i.e., are 1MBx9).  Apple cards don't 
(i.e., are 1MBx8).
