Here's a good one. The news has been trumpeting the drop in DRAM prices as a sign of doom and gloom. However, they fail to note that 64M DRAM has been superseded by 128/256M DRAM! Indeed, most of the entries in the Micron Tech memory sheet are for 128/256M (see below). Why then is everyone talking about the price on the outdated 64M chip?
