Michael, pardon my rambling
The price of a 32 meg chip of SDRAM is hovering around $45,
(down from $850 two or three yrs ago for a 32 meg simm).
Corporate America can get a 233mmx with monitor for <$999 and who know how much they will charge for a machine with the celery chip.
A lot of Co's never moved to Win95... Win98 is not that much different (well I can't get it to recognize my cd rom)
How much incentive to upgrade? What's MU going to do when people do buy the 100 mhz boards which require a memory with better timing than SDRAM offers?
I propose MU turn their factory into an ice cream plant, can't get a nickel cone anymore...

speaking of.... upgrading
I confess, I sold my 65 Chevy pickup.. the floor was getting drafty..
