I can still buy 16 MB SIMM strips for 84 dollars at Hi-Tech USA. Cash Only. Just for the record, I hate shopping there. A number of smaller computer parts stores are offer 16 MB strips at under $90. I just upgraded my snail pace 486 to a Pentium and had to buy a whole lot of new toys. I paid $84 at ACTNET (because they were willing to match hte price of a local competitor... They were advertising for $94). Prices are negociatable... especially in the SF bay area (where I live) or in the San Jose Silicon Valley area. It's just my opinion and I'm no expert, but if your running windows95, why do you need QEMM. DOesn't win95 have memmory management features built into the O/S. ALso, I use Ram DOubler on my Mac at work and have SOftRam at home, but doesn't eaither one of these programs slow down the computer considerable because it is using the HD as a memmory cache and swaps files as necessary (w/ the HD) to maintain the active programs/files in Upperbound memmory. What is the point of this when both Win95 and the newer Mac O/S 7 (or higher) both have virtual memmory which does the same thing. Aslo, why spend $40 on software when 8 MB SIMM strips are $29 to $39 advertised. I rather add more hardware (since hardware can't be copied). My point is, the newer fancier operating systems don't require products that mamage their memmory or double their memmory...It's built in. While I own QEMM 7.0 and Softram (made for win95) I didn't reload the software on my new 2.1 GB HD. Additional software takes up too much HD space. I loaded full win95 (90 MBS), Norton ANtivirus and Norton Diskdoctor (21 MBS) FULL MS OFFICE PRO (another 90+ MBS). Already 200 mbs is used and I haven't even tranferred any games or other niche software yet (netscape, AlphaCOnnect, Wall STreet Analyst, programs for the kids), . SHeeeesch. They didn'y have this much software or CPU power in the first rockets to the moon.
