Can one still buy memory cards for the classics--say a Series 68/70?
Remember those?  Last time I thought about them, memory came in
4MB boards, which were about 16-inches square, and you had a choice:
about $75,000 from HP or about $35,000 from EMC.  They were a
big jump up from the 256K boards on the earlier models, 1MB boards
on later ones.

Anybody got a handle on current price?
