What makes this > so infuriating is that Apple is shipping these SIMMS (sold to others > at higher prices)! Talk about sleazy business practices. I am not 100% sure about this, but I think that the 4M kits being shipped are not the same 4M kits we ordered. These kits are made with 256K chips piggy backed to each other, not with the 1M kits. Therefore Apple can send them to people who ordered these kits specifically, while those of us who ordered the old ones can still wait. I agree that this is infuriating, and I'm in the same boat. Just this week our store got some of these new 4MB kits in, and I jumped for joy until I found out that these were twice the price, and there my manager won't let me take them. So I'm *still* waiting for the "right" kinds of SIMMs to come in. Bob Hablutzel BOB@NUACC.ACNS.NWU.EDU Disclaimer: HEY! I could be wrong.
