Simon system is running at 50 MHz, may be should be
more appropriately designated "dx2-100", while "dx4-100" most often
imply bus speed of 25 MHz (or sometimes 33 MHz).
The real bus speed may make a lot of difference, e.g. memory
transfers 32-bit benches about 45-50 MBytes/sec with dx2-100.
Drawback is SIMM and other components got to be able to match
