The irony: die RAMBUS!

512MB Mushkin PC133 SDRAM: $79

512MB Mushkin 800MHz RDRAM: $749

Eat your heart out... All those P4 with Intel chipset buyers ought to be loving this

hehe, yea that's funny. Although, since the P4 requires ram in pairs, a P4 user would have to buy 2 256mb sticks which would actually cost <$400.(don't know the exact price, it maybe closer to $300 than $400)

Mushkin 512MB is $79? HOLY CRAP!

I was only checking out Crucial 512MB and hoping that the price would drop further. OK.. Time to get myself 2 GB or RAM.

Wait a minute.. my board can only take 1.5 GB.

why the hell would you need 1.5gb of ram?

The question, my friend, is why not?

RAM disk.

For my server, I want at least 1 GB because I want to enable caching on my ISA Server, run SQL Server 2000 and Exchange Server 2000. .NET Enterprise Servers are RAM pigs.

LOL. Exactly. Why not?
