There have been several discussions (I'm thinking ~2-3 years ago)
about appropriate ram for various boxen. You might wanna check Mike
Tibor's excellent searchable archives (There's a link on ALO). I have
three AS200's, and thinking back, I know EDO was a non-starter. I'm
pretty sure FPM was, too. Plain, old-fashioned true-parity 72-pin
60 nS simms are what you probably need. The contact material
(tinned vs gold) makes little difference beyond the possibility that
you might need to reseat the tinned ones every few years...
