I'm talking here about using it alongside the (linuxbios) in system rom;
but it's a moot point since the DoC DIMM is actually a SoDIMM (144 pin)
and won't plug into a PC motherboard as I hoped.  I can fit 1Mbyte flash
rom (40pin) though on my motherboard (with some soldering - careful!)
so I'm not so worried.
