A marginal performance increase, ~5%, in most applications for a
significant price premium, ~100%-200%.  IOW, very Mac-like.

This will change in the future as DDR3 becomes price competitive with

hobbyists and early adopters who care more about bragging rights than
anything else.  See: "These go to 11."
