Rats.  ALWAYS check your facts.  $80, I wish!  The company is Tenex Computer
Express, they just mailed out their Winter 1990 catalog to about 3 million
of you folks, and the REAL prices are:
  Z386/20,25,33 32-bit modules
      1MB...$129
      2MB...$199
      4MB...$529
Standard 1MB 1X9 80 ns simms (like we use in our Z248/12 machines) are $69.95,
which is $4.95 more than I paid for the same pieces in August from Chip
Merchant in San Diego.  So these folks are right in the ballpark.  Their
number is 1-800-776-6781.  No sales tax outside of Indiana, they handle
foreign orderd, etc. etc.

Usual disclaimers...
