[comp.sys.apple] Memory chips for the IIgs

balamac@ATHENA.MIT.EDU.UUCP (04/02/87)

$32.00 for a set of 8 41256-15 chips seems a bit high.  I bought 512K
for my gsRAM card from a local electronics supply house at $3.00 a chip
and later found chips at $2.80 each from another dealer.  I've seen
similar prices advertised in Computer Shopper and Byte. 

Also, our Apple IIgs Memory Exp. Card (different machine) came with
the necessary jumper blocks, so we were able to use the same chips
for both cards.
