According to a report in MacWeek, 1-Mbit DRAM chips cost $9-$10 right now.
MacWeek predicts that the price will continue to drop to about $3.50 in 1992.
That means by 1992 a 1MEG SIMM would cost less than $35.  They also say that
the price of 1-Mbit DRAM chips will rise again in 1992 due to the transition to 
4-Mbit DRAM chips.
