  I think you are talking about the Sequential cards that use the ZIP
RAM (correct name I believe).  I would think they would be 1 Meg by 1
packages.  I still have several of them cards somewhere around here,
I'd have to look at them.

  If so, I have plenty of 1 Meg by 8 SIMMs that were made with 1 Meg by
1 ZIP RAM chips.  Legs may be trimmed off however.

  Do you have a part number off the old ZIPs that are currently on the
board?
