I ran the boot ROM RAM test on the memory and it complained (something
like "memory walking test failed, address error").  Maybe I have a bad
SIMM or more there - too bad the memory test doesn't tell which one is
bad.  I don't even know what kind of error it is from the message.

9-chip 30-pin SIMMs are kind of hard to find these days..
