A week ago I asked if someone knew where to get sockets to convert SIMMs
to SIPPs. Ha! A few smart peole told me that I could take a soldertail
SIMM socket and plug the wires in the SIPP holes, and why didn't I think
of that?
After calling 11 local stores today and finding one which even knew what
a SIMM *was*, I started calling mailorder and didn't find anyone who
sold less than a hundred at a reasonable price. So, does someone have an
idea where to get the stupid sockets now?
Thanks to all who responded the first time.
