Dan - I think you're paying up for using fewer chips - 4 vs. 8 DIMMs.
Perhaps this leaves slots free for further expansion?

32GB, DDR2 SDRAM FBD Memory, 533MHz, ECC (8 DIMMS) [add $26,670]
16GB, DDR2 SDRAM FBD Memory, 533MHz, ECC (4 DIMMS) [add $14,670]

16GB, DDR2 SDRAM FBD Memory, 667MHz, ECC (8 DIMMS) [add $2,970]
How come the slower memory is an significantly more expensive? There must
be another difference, because they don't even offer a 32GB configuration of
the faster memory. I can't imagine how one could get $25K worth of value
out of RAM.
