To that I have to add:
The local supplier is also factoring in the warranty costs and the phone
support costs. Locally I can buy 32mb 72 pin SIMMs for $98. On-line or
through the 'grapevine' the same RAM is $15. Of course, I'm a
professional. If it doesn't work, I can deal with it myself. Many
consumers can't and to them the premium price is worth it.
Ignorance has always had it's cost.
