And Dell's upgrade price for 2GB/8 RIMM's is $5,800.00. That's a staggering number to contemplate. not to worry. some rmbs investors can afford it.

Gene, <And Dell's upgrade price for 2GB/8 RIMM's is $5,800.00. That's a staggering number to contemplate.> Just for comparison: For Dell's PowerEdge 8450 enterprise server, the price of upgrading from 1 GB to 2 GB of PC100 SDRAM is $5,934.00. Tenchusatsu

Gene: Dell's upgrade price for 2GB/8 RIMM's is $5,800.00. Is that for PC600 or PC800 RIMMs. Price for PC800 upgrade was almost $6,100 yesterday. If it's for PC800, there has been 5% price decrease today. john

Gene, Looking at Dell's web site I see the following. 1Gb ECC PC800 (4 sticks) = $2,770. 2 of those for 8 sticks will make 2Gb for $5540. On the other hand, you can get the system with the least memory and buy the same Samsung brand name 256Mb PC800 ECC sticks for $605 from the link below for $605x8=$4840 and save $700 over the Dell price: shopper.cnet.com Now, let's compare that to SDRAM PC133 ECC 256Mb sticks from Crucial: crucial.com SDRAM PC133 ECC 256Mb CL2 = $450 x 8 = $3600.
