I recently bought 1-Meg 80ns SIMMs for $44 each from The Chip Merchant. They
only accept COD (no credit cards), and so I was a little uneasy, but
a co-worker had used them in the past with no problems.

Bottom line is that my Mac Plus now has 4 Meg, for a total cost (including
S&H) of $183. Not bad, and I hear they're even cheaper now! (This was a 
couple weeks ago.) The Mac is working fine now, and the chips supposedly
have a lifetime guarantee.

Here is their phone number:

	THE CHIP MERCHANT  (800) 426-6375
