Prices locally where I am have tripled.  A 32MB DIMM that cost about $25.00
four weeks ago now costs over $90.00.  The reason?  The earthquake in Taiwan
has severely crippled production for a short time.  This is (pardon the pun)
an aftershock of that event.  They will come back down as the plants get
back into full swing, but we will see these kinds of prices through
Christmas.  At least, that's what the analysts say.
