Hardware is not my area of competence but something just struck
me. I recently talked to an irc.friend about Apollo accelerators.
According to him, the four SIMM-slots on the 4040 and 4060 occupy
32M of address-space each, meaning that if you put anything but
32M SIMMs in them, you get address-space "holes" between consecutive
SIMMs. Of course, the 80M this guy has suggests he's got a 32+32+16
config, so I'm probably off track here... 

Could the fragmented physical address-space cause problems though?
I'm sorta looking for 2nd hand accelerators (mainly for the extra
memory) and I want to make sure I don't run into incompatibilities
with netbsd.
