That way you can always send it back if it doesn't work as promised. Also, lifetime warranties are valuable, especially on board level products. Clearpoint sells memory for the 4D/20 through 4D/80. Helios sells memory for the 4D/2x0 series. Clearpoint's number is 1-800-CLEARPT. I don't have Helios' number. Or contact any reasonable size memory/ peripheral distributor. Among the ones in Northern California, we've found CITA in Sacremento (916) 344-5558 to have good prices and service. Jim Helman Department of Applied Physics P.O.

No problems, fast ship, life-time warranty. Last time we ordered (early Jan/90) they were $85US.

Thats where the market is (PI's & Mac's just happen to use the same memory). /Wayne From davis@adenosine.pharm.utah.edu Mon Mar 5 16:05:20 1990 Received: Mon, 5 Mar 90 16:05:20 EST from cs.utah.edu by aero4.larc.nasa.gov (5.52/5.6) Received: from adenosine.pharm.utah.edu (adenosine.nurs.utah.edu) by cs.utah.edu (5.61/utah-2.6-cs) id AA16064; Mon, 5 Mar 90 14:02:57 -0700 Date: Mon, 5 Mar 90 14:08:06 MST From: davis@adenosine.pharm.utah.edu (Darrell R.

Status: R I recently, Jan 1990, bought memory for 4D 20, 1Mb simms, from Sophisticated Circuits. Address: 19017 120th Ave N.E., Bothel WA 98011, (206) 485-7172. Price at that time was $125/meg. They also had 4MB chips but I forgot the price. About 3day delivery. This is about the 4th time I have bought memory from them (originally at $310 per meg). Last year I got a batch of bad chips and they promptly replaced them with no hassle. The original memory I bought is still working fine, just about 2 years. -----Darrell R.
