CDC has had a sale on RAM for $9.95/meg for the past three Saturdays
in a row. chances are it's a regular thing, so why would I pay $104
when I can get it for $80?

there is a difference actually. as far as i know (i bought a cdc simm),
they are 70ns, non edo, while the advertised item is EDO, 60ns.

If you noticed he said CANADIAN DOLLARS ( $1.00 US = $1.33 Can)
That makes his 8meg cost $78.00 US.............
just my $.02 worth (US. of course)........

True CDC has a cheaper price but they arn't selling EDO RAM. Now, i
don't think an EDO 8meg simm is $104, but it will be close...

Maybe sombody can correct me on this....

Where in Canada (or the states) are you getting that amount for
Canadian dollars? Last I heard the US dollar was stomping the
Canadian, and (at the time) it was 70 cents Canadian for every one
dollar American.

That would make his $135.20
