	I personally like my Teflon(R) coated memory, nary a sticky bit to be
had, and boy are they slick.  Why just the other day I was chasing a GURU
around for over 2 hours before I finally got a good firm two handed grip
on him, and he still nearly squirmed out of my grasp.  By the way there is
a down side to these things, just try to get any useful data to adhere is
a real pain...  almost as bad as loosing refresh...  but thats another story.
