In (several messages) many people said:

How about this compromise:  4 SIMM sockets in the new low-cost Mac.
Two loaded with 1-Meg SIMMs, two empty.  (Yes, this configuration works!)

At todays prices, two 1-Meg SIMMs shouldn't cost much more than
four 256K SIMMs.  This is also a nice price/performance/expandibility
compromise.
