Darn. Lost it again. Could somebody post the phone number for the The Chip Merchant. Maybe even known current 1Mb SIMM price. Email would do, too. ------------ The only drawback with morning is that it comes at such an inconvenient time of day. ------------

This seems like information everyone would be interested in, so I'm posting it. The San Diego Chip Merchant's number is 619-268-4774. As of two weeks ago, the price for 1 meg x 8 80ns SIMMs was $49. I bought two megs from them at that price. They came with a lifetime warranty. No problems yet. -- Barry E.
