Why is EDO memory more expensive than SDRAM

[evergreen96]

See title. I thought with time, the price will drop dramatcally

For instance
168pins DIMM

ED0 128MB 16x64-60 3.3 unbuf $73
PC133 128 MB $22

Price as of 10/29/01

It's called supply and demand. Now that EDO doesn't have great demand, the supply is low. Therefore they charge a premium for it. It's just like what happens to gasoline. When the supply of crude oil is low, gas prices go up.
