	Ok, I've finally gotten some results from Motorola...
I'm contacting two actual distributors tomorrow, but I thought
people might appreciate an update.
	First, what am I talking about?  Well, when Apple announced
System 7.0 to the net (nice of them), I posted about pooling net
Mac II owners to buy PMMUs from Motorola, so we can have virtual
memory without paying Apple $450.
	So.  The local Motorola office has revealed that the MC68851
RC16A, the 16 MHz model, is listed at $202 for 1-4 chips.  This looks
pretty good, but remember shipping costs, and California's wonderful
sales tax.  Since I now have e-mail from about 25 interested
netters, we may well get into a lower price range.  I hope so.
	Here's a list of the people who have expressed interest.  I got
the addresses by grepping From:, in case you can't tell ;-) , so
please let me know if I have a bad address.  If your name isn't here,
and you want it to be, drop me a line.  If it is and oughtn't to be,
let me know.
	Now is also a good time for discussion on the actual purchase.
I don't want to have anyone afraid that I'll head for the Outback with his 
money, but I don't have the cash reserves to pay for the order and then bill 
everyone, either.  Suggestions?  I'll post again as events warrant.
