it's because all the new technologies coming out in RAM. DDR, Rambus, etc. To you or me, it really means nothing because we buy what goes in our board. To an idiot, they buy the Rambus, then the sales guy says "that won't work in your motherboard, you need this 200 dollar one".Or maybe the government is putting special tracking stuff in the chips so that they know what we're all doing all the time, and they made it cheap to make sure everyone buys it... DAMN YOU DUBYA!! He's trying to track where we get all the good porn from...
