Someone here at Harris noticed that if you want a 16 meg upgrade, it is
cheaper to buy two 8 meg upgrades, at $6,650 each (total: $13,300) than a
single 16 meg upgrade (total: $13,450).  You can move the extra SIMMs to
your machine, and save the motherboard as a spare!

Let's talk gouging:  Sun is charging $3400/4 megs of memory for any
upgrade beyond 8 megs.

Why can't you upgrade dimple tops?  What is the problem?  Clearance?
Cooling?  As the owners of 12 dimple tops, what do WE do?

[[ Call Clearpoint, maybe?  --wnl ]]
