As regards innovation, how can introducing a five-times faster 128GB NAND chip even begin to compare with placing the headphone jack on the bottom (!) of a smart phone ?!!... Henri

Ah, realneil , how fortunate you are in that you don't seem subject to the bad habits of some of your fellows ! Just now I have some 256 tabs open in FF Nightly on Ubuntu 12.04 and I'm beginning to note a distressing degree of inertia, despite my 16GB of RAM. Either I'm going to have to reform...

I have four 4GB sticks in my main box as it is and don't really need need any more memory - the machine is very responsive despite my unfortunate habit of having 200+ (at the moment 226) tabs open in FF Nightly. But if I could get good prices on 8GB sticks, I might allow myself to be tempted to go...

I was worried until I saw that the corners of the module weren't sufficiently rounded that Apple could reasonably be expected to be able to convince a judge to accept that the design violates a valid patent held by that company. But, giving the state of the patent and the judicial system in the United...

Thanks, realneil - that's more or less what I presumed would prove the case ! I also agree that the hop from 8 to 16GB is far more significant than that from 16 to 32GB. With 16GB I can indulge in my unfortunate tendency to have 100+ tabs open on FF Nightly, without worrying about the machine slowing...

On my AMD Phenom II X4 955 rig, I'm presently running 4 x 4GB Corsair XMS3 Vengeance DDR3 PC12800/1600MHz CL9 RAM. Would there really be an observable advantage to running, say, 2 x 8GB with a faster speed of 2133 MHz ? (I don't think my GA-990FXA-UD3 motherboard supports this latter transfer...

«... Now more time can be spent using a computer than waiting on it.» I do wish marketing «experts» could be convinced to refrain from writing blurbs of this type. I sincerely doubt that anybody who owns a computer with an i7-3960X 6-Core processor installed - no matter what their...

Just finished (re)building a computer with 4 x 4GB DDR3 RAM, which I was able to purchase for prices that would have seemed incredibly low a year ago - and they have continued to fall after my purchase. Great for consumers - hope prices stay stable !... Henri
