Huh? I never once ever saw any of those, on any machine or box or
whatever.

And, the easiest way to find out what the memory bandwidth is for a
specific machine (probably read only, but I never checked) is to goto
http://www.memtest86.com/ , download the program, make the fd, and
boot it. The upper left hand corner of the display has all kinds of
useful info. And you get the memory tested as a side benefit. :-)
