	There are some third party hardware products for Pyramid's,  but there
	are a number of things to consider.

	1. Memory *is* a commodity,  hence it's seemingly excessive price.
	2. Pyramid cannot,  and will not directly support alien hardware.
		I believe that we will install it (charging for labor),  but
		support is wholly owned by the customer/vendor.
	3. Someone who has depreciated Pyramid memory arrays is probably
		your best source.  They can be put under support with little
		of no problem.

	Good luck.
