No, it's shipping today. I expect I'll have it in by the weekend.

I'm planning to use it with Win 2K, the vendor mentions (and Victoria
confirms) that there is some software tweak required to make the larger
chip work in a 560x running Win98.
I'll probably leave the Win98 Lite Solid State 560x at 96 Mb, I'm not at
all sure that more RAM would make any difference.
If the 128 Mb chip works with Win2K I'll have a 64 Mb chip available for
some other 560 owner.
