It does contain instructions on making it into a Trojan Horse (i.e. name it 'LaserWriter Prep'), but even so, that simply allows you to put the bunny up on the victims screen, not destroy his data. -- Matthew T.

You cannot only partially populate the SIMM slots in the IIsi. All have to
contain the same type of SIMM, you cannot leave some empty.hades@othello.dartmouth.edu (Hades) (02/23/91)

I find that to be a very interesting situation, mainly because the situation here at Dartmouth has the price difference for the 2/40 versions at $820, and I have always thought that we had some of the best prices in the country. Of course I could be wrong. I currently have an LC on my desk and I love the little thing. I thing apple went a little overboard with the low profile look but other than that its impressivley solid. Due mostly to the 16mHz '020 which I always though was a great chip, just not as much hype as the '030. >How much would I expect to pay for 2 4-meg SIMMS? What >is a reputable place/brand, and does installing them void >the warranty? The prices on 4meg simms is comming down quite fast. The going rates from MacWeek range from $175 - $215 for 80ns. I have always liked Chip Merchant and Memory Plus (the latter because they take University P.O.'s) Yes, if you install them yourself you will void the warranty on your mac. Its usually best to have a dealer or service person do the installation. Its not always as easy as you might think. >Sorry so many questions (net bandwidth too)...but I haven't >been a computer hobbyist since the days of integer cards, >AppleCats, and 2600 hz tones :) Jeez, that's quite a while ago..... ;-> >On an unrelated note...my Apple dealer says the Energizer >Bunny init is a trojan horse.

Haven't heard anything about it, but that sounds like a cute idea. | Hades || Mac Database Admin. | | Brian V.
