With RAM as cheap as it is, who is actually using ReadyBoost? Those with knowledge already have a decently fast system. Those without knowledge, won't know what ReadyBoost is or how to use it.

Not if you're system uses DDR1 or DDR3, which both mine do. Then RAM's not that cheap. It's a good enough stop gap solution though I'm still not sure if it really does anything.

ReadyBoost works for me on Windows 7 except it says my drive is not compatible. It works with Vista though and is ReadyBoost certified. I have a sneaky feeling it a driver issue with the USB ports though.
