I tried to test the 16MB SIMM in gene-simmons, but was unable to
figure out how to plug it in.  Someone who knows how gene's case works
should probably look at it; I don't think I put the case back on quite
correctly.

I tested the 16MB SIMM in granola, and it works fine.  I also tried
booting limekiller with the 16MB SIMM and one of Jered's 4MB SIMMs
(thus filling up two memory banks), and that also works.  So we could
have both machines running with 20MB of memory without any further
fiddling, but that's not what we said we wanted.  So I'm going to
leave limekiller powered off (with the 16MB SIMM inside it) until
Jered gets the manual for limekiller and figures out how to set the
jumpers so that it can deal with only having one memory bank full.
