    I found a nice page describing drams.

	http://www.imagiq.com/RAMGuide.html

    In anycase, the Micron chips on these defective SDRAM simms are
    -75's, which means 7.5ns which == 133 MHz.  But as the above
    guide indicates, that does not necessarily mean that the chips
    are PC133 compliant.

    When I lookup the part number, aka 48LC32M8A2-75, I get this
    (for example):

	http://www.wiredzone.com/items.asp?cartid=&cc=ME-SDRAM

    In the above list the SamSung part is specified at PC100, but
    if you go down to the Micron section their 48LC32M8A2 part
    is specified at PC133.

    So I'm inclined not to blame IDot.  The chips do indeed appears
    to be PC133, or at least they are supposed to be.  I'll get
    IDot to replace them.
