ditto..At the University Computer Store at Vanderbilt University,
the wait for 4M SIMM kits is six months and counting, but the A/UX
development system with 4M installed is in stock in quantity.  I have
heard that people buy the A/UX development system just to get the 4M,
and the first thing they do is reformat the A/UX disk. One really can't
blame Apple for giving higher priority to moving A/UX than upgrading existing
machines.
