I've been thinking: What a tremendous mistake apple has made by not unloading its DRAM stockpile on the open market last year at firesale prices ($150/1Mb). They could have written off the huge loss, and then started putting these $69 DRAMS into production macintoshes, at incredible savings. Does anyone know if Apple liquidated its DRAM stockpiles? Or are Mac buyers still paying for that overpurchasing mistake?
