as an addendum / caution to what David G said, most Pentium chipsets DO
NOT support parity RAM, so you're stuck with non-parity. EDO is
certainly faster than normal ("fast page mode") DRAM. The ideal solution
is to get a board which supports DIMM memory with ECC, such as Dell
PowerEdge's and a few others. GOOD memory is ALWAYS preferable to fast
memory with holes in it... ;)
