I've just upgraded to 32 MB of memory with a new SIMM bought from my
local PC vender, and requiring a single sidded one, was pretty sure he
wouldn't have any in stock. But he had and, wow, how small they have
got.

The SIMM I took out of my Blizzard was single sidded 16 MB and had 9
chips on it for a total width of about 5mm. The new one has only 4
chips and is about 1.5mm thick, so easilly fits in my card.

So what? Well anybody who hasn't upgraded to more memory because they
didn't want to pay extra for single sidded SIMMs need not worry - I
don't think my new SIMM is single sidded on purpose, just that it
doesn't need to be double sidded. Cost �45.
