The subject says it all. We're looking for companies that sell memory for our 3100 DecStation. -- Johan de Haas tel. +31 15 785188 E-mail: johan@dutnak0.tudelft.nl Delft University of Technology P.O Box 5046, 2600 GA Delft, The Netherlands -- Johan de Haas tel. +31 15 785188 E-mail: johan@dutnak0.tudelft.nl Delft University of Technology P.O Box 5046, 2600 GA Delft, The Netherlands

Clearpoint
508-435-2000
Wasn't shipping them, gave me a price quote that was about 3x what I
considered a fair price for memories.
Standard Memories
800-543-3323
Offered a 7 day shipping time, at a price that was about 2x what I
considered fair.
I'm not going to quote prices cause they aren't necessarily the price you'd
get, but for point of comparison I can outfit a Sun SS1+ with memory at
a price for which I'm prepared to spend 50% more on and still be reasonably
happy.

One thing you might want to keep in mind is that, unlike Sun or Mac SIMM's, the one for the DS3100 are a custom design, rather than being stock memory manufacturer products resold at a competitive markup. I guess this doesn't bother DEC and it's nothing compared to the pain of VAX6000/DS58XX XMI memory boards... -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing: domain: grr@cbmvax.commodore.com Commodore, Engineering Department phone: 215-431-9349 (only by moonlite)
