Hi there-

	I'm considering adding more memory to my NeXT--either 4meg or
8meg.  I'm wondering how much of a performance increase I'll get with
either upgrade--is it very noticeable?  I notice that I spend a decent
amount of time doing context swaps since I jump around a lot and have
a lot of stuff open.  What are people's experiences?

	Also, where are some good places to get memory nowadays?  A
few months ago there were some suggestions, but I'm wondering what the
current situation is.

thanks,
