1 Megabit DRAM's are still quite expensive and a bit hard to find.  For mail
order, try Microprocessors Unlimited (918) 267-4961, or perhaps Jameco at
(415) 592-8121.  These places have pretty good reputations and more or less
reasonable prices, but don't be surprised if you find Allegra is offering a
pretty good deal.

Persons living in the Silicon Valley area may be aware of local sources and
perhaps better pricing, but my tentacles don't reach that far...
