I had an A7M266 in my hands for 30 min on friday - before the damn
fan mounting plastic bit broke off and I had to replace it.

However, I noted that it had only 2 DIMM slots on it with solder points
for a 3rd slot of some sort (not sure if the solder points are the
same for regular and DDR dimm mounts).

Ill try to check out my replacement Im sposta get today. Could be expensive
to get 2x 1Gb DIMMs.
