One caution for 4164s. When they first came out, there were some that were 256 
cycle refresh and others that were 128 cycle.

There is no way by looking at them to tell which is which other than getting a 
matching original manufacture document.

Many machines expect 128 cycle. You can use 256 cycle on chips designed for 128 
but not the other way around.

Most Z80 setups only do 128 unless it has additional hardware to handle the 
extra bit ( not to likely ).

Hi, Emanuel,

I have a quantity of 4164 DRAM from the Comboard days, new in tube.  It is
likely to mostly be 150ns and I don't know the brands until I dig it out,
but I will check when I get home.  If it matches what you need, I'm happy
to send some to you.
