That way you can always send it back if it doesn't work as promised. Also, lifetime warranties are valuable, especially on board level products. Clearpoint sells memory for the 4D/20 through 4D/80. Helios sells memory for the 4D/2x0 series. Clearpoint's number is 1-800-CLEARPT. I don't have Helios' number. Or contact any reasonable size memory/ peripheral distributor. Among the ones in Northern California, we've found CITA in Sacremento (916) 344-5558 to have good prices and service. Jim Helman Department of Applied Physics P.O.
