I see there are some SIMM sockets on the card, but I don't see anyone advertising these kinds of SIMMs in the back of MacWeek cheaply. Two questions... 1) Will I be forced to pay Apple's premium price? And what is their price to upgrade this card? 2) Are there other alternatives to Apple? (I notice the above two questions are really just flip sides of the same question, but I'm too lazy right now to invoke our *horrible* retype/textedit, so I'll let it go. :-) Any help regarding information about 4*8-to-8*24 would be much appreciated.
