Eugene,
Thanks. This well confirms the price in my table; A 256MB
RDRAM RIMM costs around $200. To add three more of these
to the $800 256MB configuration at JNCS (all the pricing
was based on 1GB configurations) would raise the total
price to $1,400, which is what I had used for a 1.7GHz
P4 system.
