i'll second that suggestion.  i've done jsut that...  i bought a Sirius card with 2MB on it and upgraded it to the
full 8MB...  VERY nice!  :)  there's a couple things, though: the board itself is good reading.  (things like "What
are you doing reading under here?" are tucked away in strange places...  <g>)  also, the documentation that comes
with it is a bit skimpy...  it doesn't tell what type of SIMMs are recommended.

other than that, i've had only good experience with Alltech.  certainly worth it to get things from them.  :)
