I agree with you in principle, Chuq, but there are practical
considerations here.  Aside from the cost of memory upgrades, because
of trade problems (please don't start _that_ debate again) it can take
many months to get the SIMMs.  I have a friend who ordered his memory
upgrade back in November _before_ his Mac II arrived.  He's had his
Mac II for about six months now.  He _still_ hasn't gotten his memory
upgrade.

I put in an order to expand my Plus to 2.5 Meg about a month ago.  I
really wonder if it will arrive before I graduate.  I will probably
graduate in Decemeber.

My friend and I may not be getting the best service because we ordered
through Apple's university consortium program.  (It costs ~$430 to go
from 1 Meg to 2.5 Meg.)  

If you know of any way to get SIMMs in a reasonable amount of time,
please let me know.  (Don't tell anyone else, though, until my order
comes in. :-) )

A very perturbed camper,

In San Francisco, you can bay at the moon or moon at the Bay, but it doesn't    make much difference which.                                                     Disclaimer:  Hey, what do I know?  I'm only a grad student.
