In 1987 I bought a 'house clone' 286-12 with 2 megs of chip ram. 6 months later, I took lotsa dollars back to the store and bought another 18 1meg chips to total 4 megs. I paid more for that 2 megs than I did the one gig of DDR400 in this system right now. Looking at both receipts and feeling that weirdness right now :o\ Sheesh! (lets NOT do this with hard drives, ok? my first was a 20 meg and this one is a 160 gig) McG. > > > > > >> McG.
