As I said: I'm not sure if the DEC3000 uses PS/2 memory. I know that
the Noname/AXPpci33 and the Multia/UDB use them (72pin FPM w/ true
parity). If the DEC3000 uses the same memory, yes, then he can use Indy
memory. If not and it's something proprietary (which wouldn't surprise
me), he's a bit out of luck.
