Just last week I tried to replace some 72 pin simms with a pc133 64 meg
stick (because I need the 72 pin for other machines that don't have dimm
slots)

Anyway, the 64 meg pc133 won't work properly on a 66 meg bus.  The bios
tests 16 meg and it works fine as a 16 meg stick.

Just goes to show you can't slow them down too much either.
