	I just called and asked about 1 Meg SIMMs and the scoop is that they
are selling 120 NS 1 Meg SIMMS (good for Plus, SE or II) for $249 a piece.
In other words, you need to pop $498 to add 2 Meg or a grand to upgrade to
4 Meg.  The upgrade is user installed and will probably void your warranty
if it hasn't already expired.  About the only way to avoid voiding the
warranty is to have an apple certified dealer install it.  If you can talk
one into installing these cheaper simms it shouldn't void the warranty.
	As to the quoted $199 price "That was an earlier price and we
were unable to get the chips at that price."  You decide whether or not
it's misadvertisement.  It doesn't appear that they ever had any...
	Still looks like a bargain to me if you don't mind dealing with
folks who will quote a price they can't meet.
