This is true.  I had memory errors when I mixed PC-100 and PC-133 RAM in the
machine, and set the bus speed to 133 without realising the error.  Dropping
it back to 100 fixed the problem.

As a warning to people: don't try using kernels compiled with bad RAM
configurations.  I lost a lot of data to XFS because of a kernel I built
with PC-100 RAM running at 133MHz.

And, Lord, we're especially thankful for nuclear power, the cleanest,
safest energy source there is, except for solar, which is just a pipe
dream.
