  Yes, one of my FreeBSD machines uses them.  It has eight 1-MB,
30-pin SIMMs installed on two four-to-one extenders, along with six
4-MB SIMMs plugged directly into motherboard slots.  This machine is
running FreeBSD 3.1, formerly 2.2.6, and Linux-something before that.
It's a 486DX-33 machine, by the way.
