Check again. The "Memory Price Rocket" as I decided to call it means that
64Mb of RAM now costs a whopping £150!!!!! So much for memory prices falling
rapidly - it's going to take quite a few months for the industry to recover
back to the way it was only last month, I would say it will be well into
2005 at least before solid state storage becomes a viable alternative.
