	I just added a 4Mb SIMM module from Signal Computer Supplies
which is an excellent outfit manned by some ex-DGers. While quotes vary
over time ( and currently they seem to be turning around and edging
back up ), suffice it to say that the price was about 23 per cent of
Data General's list price. Another company with high performance claims
for their SIMMs is DataRam, but their prices are roughly 1/2 of DGs.

I also called Digital Data Systems, and they were roughly 1/3 of DG's price.

Once again, quotes vary with time. You're milage may vary.


Oops -> that's Signal Computer Products at (508)-263-6125. I've also bought
a 662M hard-drive with enclosure from them. I'm currently a satisfied customer.
