Um, that's exactly what mine do, unless I'm
misunderstanding you. For
example, you can plug four 1M 30-pin SIMMs into one and you get a 4M
72-pin "SIMM".
No, that's an adapter because I can't take the whole shebang and plug
it into a 30-pin SIMM. See what I mean? It adapts 30-pin SIMMS to
72-pin SIMMs. That's great if I'm moving from a 30-pin SIMM mobo to a
72-pin SIMM mobo, but what if I just want to cram more memory onto my
30-pin SIMM mobo and don't want to shell out $$$ for high density
30-pin SIMMs? (Yeah, I know there are issues with physical clearance
on adjacent SIMM slots, let's just leave that aside for the moment.)
