    This is not new. This is why computer cases from HP had locks in the early 2000s, people would steal RAM sticks from offices and equipment.

    About a week ago I ordered 32GB of RAM for a new PC.

    I paid $190.

    It costs about $300 today. This is ridiculous.

    It’s a good time to preserve old hardware and the software that will run on it. If all these price crunches have a silver lining, I hope it’s that they motivate people to resist the pressure from tech corporations to be constantly upgrading.
