Wonder if this would mean you could put 2 megs into your computer by just adding one chip? Imagine two SIMM boards wired together with one chip sitting in the middle. With all of the talk about Sys7, I would expect a sharp demand when the new system version first comes out, then a drop once again after a short while, I think production volume will probably be right up to demand when the time comes...
