I think the consensus last time this topic came up was that memory will
be backwards compatible, but not necessarily forward compatible. i.e.
755 memory will work in a 750, 720, and 700.
750 memory will work in a 720 and 700.
720 memory is the same as 700 memory.
750 memory _might_ work in a 755.
720 memory _might_ work in a 750. If so, it might work in a 755.
I don't know how the 360 series works into this. I think 360 memory is
non-parity (won't work in the 750, which needs parity), but can use parity
memory - it just won't use the parity feature.
