My quest for cheap RAM has ended in my own backyard.

Multimedia Design (916) 372-3822

1Mbit x 4 80 ns scram ZIP's : $35 each, or $280 for four megabytes.

Compare this with $45-$65/chip that other places have.

These folks are a tiny little VAR that puts together high-end Amiga
systems for professionals, mostly for video applications, though they
put together CAD systems, too.  I asked, and it sounds like they can
take orders over the telephone and ship them, although this isn't
their usual modus operandi.

Boy are they going to be surprised.

           Amiga...  Because life is too short for boring computers.
