   Here is a list I have compiled from info-iris mail.  I don't know
how good or bad any of them are we haven't ordered anything yet.

   Sophistecated Circuits, Seattle (206) 547-4779
      Memory for 4D 20's, $310/Mb (in late April '89)

      Memory for 4D 200's $225/Mb (early January '90)
      (Have heard good things about this company, including
       5 year replacement guarantee, not 90 days like
       some companies)

   ClearPoint, 35 Parkwood Drive, Hopkington,MA 07148, (800) 253-2778
      (508) 435-2000

      (Life time warranty.)

If anyone has any more names to add to the list please let me know.
Also, please include an address or at least a phone number for the
company.


P.S. I was given another name of a company but no address or phone
     number, Helios.  The person also gave me the name of a memory/
     peripheral distributor they use; Northern California, CITA in
     Sacremento (916) 344-5558 they said CITA has good prices and
     service.

   When I say 20's, I mean 4D/20 & 4D/25. They are both 20's, as apposed
to 200's; i.e. 210, 220, 240, etc.

   Great news on the prices.  ($76/Mb from Clearpoint)  They just keep
going down.  SGI even cut their price for memory in half, now they
charge only twice what everyone else charges, instead of four times. :-)
