>Because of the quake in Kobe, Japan, memory prices are rising
This is truly sick.
As a result of an earthquake six weeks ago in Japan, the world-wide price of
DRAM's, most of which were probably made at least a year ago, are rising.
Not to mention that Korea is now the world's largest producer of DRAM's
This reminds me of when a single resin factory exploded in Japan two years ago.
World-wide IC prices skyrocketed. Even the American chip vendors jumped on the
bandwagon.
