Adam, The A3000-25/100 at first came with 1 Meg of Chip and 1 Meg of Fast
RAM.  Just a short time ago Commodore decided to start shipping this
version of the A3000 with 1 Meg of Chip and 4 meg of Fast RAM at no
additional charge.  Commodore is also shipping all A2500/30s with fully
populated 2630 cards (i.e. 4 Meg of RAM) and all 2630 cards shipped by
themselves now have 4 Meg of RAM as well.
