KL,

RE -- in the past six weeks 16 Mb PC-66 prices have risen 38% and 64Mb PC-66 prices are up 22%.

you like this kind math games?

sample:
one apple price fell to $10 from $100 within two years, that is (10-100)/100 = -90% change (only?). now, the price goes up to $19 from $10, that is (19-10)/10 = + 90% change, and looks very good. but, if you want get $100 price again, you will need (100-10)/10 = + 900% increase.

if the apple seller just break even at $100/piece, he will lose big time no matter he sell them at $19 or $10/piece!
