Any idea if the test included RAM SPEED? That seems to be one criteria not covered well in these type of testers. My Xeltek SuperPro will check a number of RAM devices, but the test is not very fast so slow RAM could show as good...but a slow 5101 won't run in a System 6 Williams MPU while it will in an old Bally MPU...

On a similar note to the Ming IC tester, I have some software for the Fairy IC tester. The 'Fairy' was an add-on board for the Apple II which had a ZIF socket on it and could presumably test all sorts of early 80's TTL and RAM?
Since the files are 6502-based, perhaps someone can extract the appropriate data? Dunno. I'll upload them to John's ftp site.
