Wrong!

4/60 *and* 4/65 use 100 ns or better. (Check out the stock chips in your
4/65.)  We use 80 ns chips as they are only ~$5-10 more and I sleep better
:-)

My salesman says that the 4/70 (SS2) uses 70ns or better (just in case you
think you might upgrade in the future; but don't forget that all 4/70's
will come with 16 MB so the point is moot.)  We have been paying the extra
~$30-40 for 70 ns 4M X 9 chips to plan against upgrades.
