I don't know, having not ever willingly used a VAX. :)

The guy with the memory stated that he removed them from a
4100.

*sigh*

Well, the overwhelming body of opinion is "don't touch 'em unless
they have the same part numbers" - which they don't. I was just
hoping that DEC wouldn't produce _that_ many variations of SIMM in a 
proprietary format - which was obviously a little naive of me :-}

Guess my 5000/1xxs are just gonna have to struggle then, as I'm 
certainly not prepared to pay what Kingston want for DEC SIMMs.

Thanks to all who responded.
