Hi! Could somebody let me know of a good third party source for memory
upgrades to a DEC 3100 (RISC) workstation?  I have 8 MB and would like to
upgrade to 24 MB.   DEC charges an arm and a leg for memory!

In a similar vein I just purchased a WREN VI (600 + MBYTES) directly
from Seagate for $1525 (ATT corporate rate?)  and got a cabinet/ power supply
for $300.  It seems to work fine on the DS 3100. A glance at the DEC DIRECT
catalogue reveals the amazing price for a similar drive of almost $10K.

Am I missing something here, or is DEC THIS EXPENSIVE ???

Thanks for any info.
