I just noticed that memory prices are going down again..

1 solution, we all anandtechers start a new D@MNED cheap ram factory, then we can drive the price down.

Nice!

Uh, jebbo, where do you get your info? I don't understand why anyone except Rambus stockholders would want to prop up the company. (I don't mean to imply you are one.) The market has dealt with this pesty problem. Its stock price is going where it deserves.

Short it to $6.

I remember the may timeframe! I bought a TYAN Dual Athlon Board, which required Registered ECC ram. And I thought It was expensive at 40 bucks for 256 meg!!!

darnit!!! I just bought Crucial 256mb pc2100 at crucial.com last week for $96.XX Was afraid it was going to rise even more. Now a few days later crucial.com has it for $90.94 and probably will drop in price again.

Still waiting for RDRAM prices to go down....although here is a good site for some cheap memory

EdgeMicro.com

Just saw in the BizNuz (NYT) that in Feb. computer chip sales (did not specify other than "chips") were off 35%. Chips used in cellphones, obviously a different critter, were stable. This could be what has caused the dip in RAM prices.

Who knows? Sometimes prices fluctuate for no apparent reason, as in the rise of around 25% in the retail price of gasoline in the last month -- I know of NO reason for that, other than that "they" figure they can do it. ;(

My last memory purchase was 2 sticks of Crucial DDR2100 256 MB for $27 each (shipped free) about 4-5 months ago. There's no way in heLL I'm paying $90 for the same....shortage or not. I'll just wait for the next big break.
