At the Macworld booth they told me that the DIP (duel inline package) SIMMs
would almost certainly interfere with add in boards in the Mac+, but shouldn't
get in the way of SE boards, as they had more space.
I just called MacProducts USA this morning to find out where my RAM & hard
disk is. They mentioned that hard drives are currently runing 3 weeks behind
receiving the order. They also came back from MacWorld with orders for
over 1000 SIMs in addition to selling out the stock they took to MacWorld.

Their elves are busiy assembling SIMMs and they are still working on clearing
their Macworld backorders.

The next best price I saw at MacWorld was $254. I wonder if those few booths
advertizing SIMMs for around $300 sold any??

I think the saying shoould be modified to:
 
"One can never be too rich, too thin or have too much RAM"
