1 grand's a lot of cash too!

I don't think there is yet any need for that much RAM unless you're talking about big mainframe/server based systems, even then that's obscene!

Still that's pretty cool

Depends what it's doing

8GB's not uncommon even in mid-range servers these days, especially with it being adressable on standard level licensing (with 64bit Windows).

True... probably more likely in the stuff you do and use, for me that would be serious over kill!

Got 8gb in this machine.

Had 2x2gb and then bought for another build another 2x2gb - and found it needed DDR2 not DDR *D'OH* so stuck it in this machine instead.

XP64 likes memory.

we are announcing a new storage array shortly with a bandwidth of 136GB/s and a sequential transfer rate of 20GB/s

capacity around 1PB

should be good for storing porn
