looking for DDR3 1333MHz ECC memory

[Derek Trotter]

About 15 years ago a friend of mine fried a motherboard and the new 
memory he bought for it.  He told me he put the memory in backwards.  I 
never understood how he managed that.  The notch in the simm wasn't in 
the center.  It could only fit one way.
