- OOOPS, my logic was slightly off here (not my maths). I have since been
- informed of the error of my ways - this should have read 2 chips per meg.
- That gives 8 chips to make up my 4 meg, which sounds better not to mention
- cheaper. Say, around US$120 for 4 meg (right?). I can live with that.

- see ya,
