[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] Chips 'n ZIPs

ruslan@uncecs.edu (Robin C. LaPasha) (03/28/90)

Someone mentioned a couple of weeks ago that if anyone
found a good source of cheap ZIPs we should post...

At AmiEXPO we ended up getting those ZIPs for the A2630
board at a good price.  At the time their current price
(not the show special) was $12 per chip for a 256X4 ZIP
package, either 100 ns or 80 ns (100 ns will do fine.)

The dealers were a place called Memory World, 2476 Craydon Ct.,
Bensalem PA 19020.  (215)741-6225, Mon-Sat 10-6.  They
seemed reasonable (we talked with Bradford Goren.)  I guess
you could get them via the compuserve gateway, at
75216.204@compuserve.com.

The guy DID WARN that they were low on stock of the ZIPs
and weren't sure when they'd have more... but they seemed
the type that would try to find them.

I asked whether any of their chips were used, like the
Kruger Company apparently has.  The guy answered that the
only used chips he sells were the ones that were so old and
slow that he couldn't get them new any more, such as 150 ns
parts (and that no, the ZIPs are new.)

Just a customer.
