    Very few laymen have noticed or give a shit about RAM prices. My young friend across the street and I are likely the only people on the block who know what RAM does, let alone are able to build a PC.

    Business purchasing is where we might see some backlash soon. I've bought all the IT goods, hardware and software, for my last two companies, and I'd be screaming.

    Boss: What the hell? Weren't we getting these laptops for $1,200 last year?!
