I guess I can always call ITT, but >this seems like it may be a common chip. > It would seem to me that you have mistaken the date code (8137) as chip number (8137 means manufactured in 1981, 37th week, if you care) The chip you want to look for is 4116 (16k x 1 DRAM), which is quite rare these days, and are difficult to find (if at at all). What I can suggest you to do is keep the RAM from language card on your mother board, and go buy another language card... Language cards are been sold for about $39 or so these days from mail order. > >Sorry if this sort of thing has been asked before, but I just recently >added this group... > >Thanks in advance for any help! > >-Doug > >dreuben@eagle.wesleyan.edu >dreuben@wesleyan.bitnet > > >P.S.

Ah, another owner of AppleCat (reminds me of good old days of catfur)
