A friend wants to upgrade her XT with 256K to 640K.  All of the local
computer stores I've called are pushing the identical hardware: AST
6-Pack+.  None of them have it in stock, all will take 3 days to get
it, and they all want $400+ for it.  Since I have to wait for delivery
anyway, I'm predicting that I can save a bundle by going mail-order.

I know I can look in computer shopper for mail-order houses, but that
will only tell me about the price, NOT the reputation of the company.

Which mail-order houses have people in net-land been happy with for
this type of item?  Which offer overnight shipping via FedEx 1-day UPS?

Thanks!
