[buying SIMM's from Chip Merchants]

What the heck, might as well add to the clutter....(-8

I just upgraded to 4 megs, using chips from a local business. The only thing
I'm leery of where Chip Merchants is concerned is that their chips have a
5-year warranty. Many, many chips on the market have lifetime warranties.

Seems like NOW is a good time to buy chips. Prices are really down. Chip 
Merchants has them for $89, while they were $110 just a few weeks ago. The
store where I got mine had 100ns chips for $99, and they installed them
while I waited. Lifetime warranty, too.

Chip Merchants will ship COD, Next Day UPS, whatever you want. For what it's
worth, their current SIMM's are made by Samsung.

I must add, go to 4 megs if at ALL possible. 2.5 is great, but 4 is TERRIFIC!
