Correct on the Ram vendor. A 500MHz Sonnet G3 Card is about $349.00 now.
I think Mac Zone is where I saw it. They are generally cheaper and
there's no state Tax tagged on as in MacMall etc. I've one installed in
this PCP 240 and with 512MB RAM it is fast. I can't stand to work on my
210 now, since it's so slow. Putting the same card & memory in it. RHB
