Some time ago when I was collecting info on overclocking the 486 and 586 class machines (nearly two years ago), I stumbled upon a mention of some module that allowed the user to install several memory modules into a single SIMM slot.
Only a mention, though. Now I'm looking for more info on it and cannot find any. Have you ever heard of something like that?

I'm still working on machines that use SIMM memory.
Never heard of something like that. That doesn't mean that there's no such device. I'll look for it.  k:

Yes, I have heard of these multiple SIMM extensions. They seemed to be quite popular (for that read advertised heavily) at the time when late 486's and early Pentiums were sold with 4 Mb SIMMs. After a couple of upgrades, replacing 4 Mb SIMMs with 32 Mb SIMMs, these products supposedly provided a way to make use of your spare 4 Mb SIMMs, e.g., stack 4 of them in a single SIMM slot.
However, they didn't always work; it seemed to depend on your mainboard chipset and BIOS. They rapidly fell out of favour. You might find some in on-line auction houses but don't pay much for them as they may not work. |

I remember these too. They were a bit expensive, but still cheaper than buying new memory. Don't remember names though or where you could possibly find one to buy now.
