No... They have fatter pins, which are round, and about the size of a
paper clip, so you may have trouble fitting it in.  I would recommend against
them, and get the Wide Srams (I posted about them.)

35ns should be fast enough for 14mhz.  These run about 18 bucks a pop.  If you
get the 20ns (narrow) they'll about $10.75.  There are also 15ns, 12ns, and 8ns
SRAMS, which are faster, but MUCH MUCH more expensive.
