Jim, He has been able to take advantage of price declines and cheap spot RAM for years now. Let us see how he handles the shortage. He may choose to pay extra and leave the price down, in which case his margin(low already) will be hit in the next quarterly report.
Sometimes you can use leverage, but the memory makers have everyone by the plums right now with the runup to christmas.
As they say: "when you have someone by the plums, his heart and mind will follow"
