The RAM Is Getting Cheaper

Within one month, the price of DDR-2 667 MHz chips has dropped 27% down. If it did not translate into the final price in shops due to the buffering effect of stocks yet, it will in the future.
This "overproduction" of memory chips might be the consequence of the "Vista effect", as it was publicly known that Vista would require at least 1GB to be usable. In addition, analysts were predicting that adoption of Vista would boost RAM modules sales... so one should conclude that either Vista is not a blockbuster, or Vista-bundle hardware PC sales are lower than expected.
