Those SIMMs are supposed to be "special" so they work where other 64 and
128 meg SIMMs don't, but that's not applicable to the Quadra 605 / 475;
I've been using a standard 64 meg SIMM in one for ages, and I've tested
a standard 128 meg SIMM, too. No problems.
I don't know which Quadras won't take 64 or 128 meg SIMMs by default, but
I'd be interested in finding out.

A student, in hopes of understanding the Lambda-nature, came to
Greenblatt. As they spoke a Multics system hacker walked by. "Is it
true," asked the student, "that PL-1 has many of the same data types as
Lisp?" Almost before the student had finished his question, Greenblatt
shouted, "FOO!", and hit the student with a stick.
