I want to eke out some more life out of one of my machines.  It has 
PC3200 memory (DDR 1 400 MHz).  Anyone know of an inexpensive source for 
some 1MB sticks?  I'd like 4 of them.  DDR1 is now considered  ancient.  
I originally thought it might be cheap.  However, from what I have seen, 
it has now passed into the realm of rather expensive relative to the 
performance you get.  Anyone got a lead on this?  I find it tough to 
swallow spending 1/2 the price of a new mobo+memory+cpu for some old 
memory...  Dilemma: 1. spend $240 on memory, have slow computer... 2. 
spend $480+ on new mobo/cpu/memory ...  If I had the $$$ obviously I'd 
pick #2. 

Thanks, Bruce
