Just picked one of these up, lurking in a SPARCStation 1 case. I gether
it's a SPARC 5 clone board.
It seems to have 30 pin SIMM memory, but also a couple of 72 pin sockets
(both of these and all 16 30 pin sockets are filled).
Anyone able to tell me if there's anything special about the 72 pin
sockets? I'm assuming both types of socket are used as main memory and
this was just done for flexibility, but it'd be nice to know (just in
case the 72 pin ones are for disk cache or something equally strange)
It seems Tadpole bought Cycle a number of years back, so I'll give them
a poke just on the offchance they have a manual kicking around (their
European base is only just down the road from me)
cheers
