[ifar355@ccwf.cc.utexas.edu, looking for 4 MB DMA RAM card]

I have an Apricorn memory card that works fine.  I goot it a few months
ago from Standard Peripherals (they advertise in inCider) for $59.  It says
it's DMA compatible (though I haven't verified this), and it works with my
RAM Keeper.

I got 2 MB of 1 MB chips from the Chip Merchant at the same time.  I forget
how much each chip was exactly, but 16 of them came to around $90 including
shipping.  This was a few months ago, and prices may have dropped since then.

The Harris Labs GS Sauce costs about the same for the card (at Standard
Peripherals, which Harris referred me to, it was $79), but SIMMs are slightly
more expensive than DIPs.  I think the Chip Merchant quoted me a about $110
for the SIMMs.
