We are thinking about purchasing some 3rd party hardware for our 4D/20s and I would like to know if anyone has had any experience with either of these companies. I would appreciate hearing about both good and bad experiences. Parity Systems - 4 MB SIMMs National Peripherals - IPI drive/SMD drives Thanks for any information you may be able to provide.

Does anyone know if such SIMMS as the above will be migratable to this machine? I believe most people are putting 80 ns SIMMS into existing PIs. -P. ************************f*u*cn*rd*ths*u*cn*gt*a*gd*jb************************** Peter S.
