https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DRAM_price_fixing_scandal>In 2002, the United States Department of Justice, under the Sherman Antitrust Act, began a probe into the activities of dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) manufacturers in response to claims by US computer makers, including Dell and Gateway, that inflated DRAM pricing was causing lost profits and hindering their effectiveness in the marketplace.[1][2]>To date, five manufacturers have pleaded guilty to their involvement in an international price-fixing conspiracy between July 1, 1998, and June 15, 2002, including Hynix, Infineon, Micron Technology, Samsung, and Elpida.>On 27 April 2018, Hagens Berman filed a class-action lawsuit against Samsung, Hynix, and Micron in U.S. District Court alleging the trio engaged in DRAM price fixing causing prices to skyrocket through 2016 and 2017.[8] Between June 2016 and January 2018, the price of DRAM nearly tripled.

Kept all my old laptops and pcs. 4 desktops, 8 laptops, and 6 tablets. Even did some upgrades to most of them. I use two of the desktops for background AI work. I just log in from my newest pc and let them run generative AI. One has a Titan xp and the other has a 2060 super. Both have 64gb of DDR4
