-If you ask for Parity RAM in a computer store, you'll probably get
-<emphasis>virtual parity</emphasis> memory modules instead of
-<emphasis>true parity</emphasis> ones. Virtual parity SIMMs can often
-(but not always) be distinguished because they only have one more chip
-than an equivalent non-parity SIMM, and that one extra chip is smaller
-than all the others. Virtual-parity SIMMs work exactly like non-parity
-memory. They can't tell you when you have a single-bit RAM error the
-way true-parity SIMMs do in a motherboard that implements
-parity. Don't ever pay more for a virtual-parity SIMM than a
-non-parity one. Do expect to pay a little more for true-parity SIMMs,
-because you are actually buying one extra bit of memory for every 8
-bits.
