If you think thats cheap, wait 6 more months.
And Nighty night, both of you.

Even given the recent downturn in our dollar, memory is quite cheap in Australia too.
Recent purchases: 2x750gig hard drives for $106 each 8 gigs of Ram (4x2 gig sticks) for $150 (Patriot) 8 gig USB stick for $37 - Sandisk so a good brand. I remember the first hard drive I bought. It was 40 megabytes and cost about $1000. But RAM has really gotten cheap over the last 12 months. At the start of 2007 I bought 2 gigs of memory (2x1 gig sticks) and it cost me about $300. It was good quality, but this was the cheapest I could find it. Recently I got 4 times as much memory for half that price.

I got 2 1gig flash drives for free on College Orientation day. They gave you one for going around and having stickers put on a card all around campus. So a friend and I did that. He thought he lost his and we both needed one more sticker. So he went to the desk and they just gave him the flash drive. We move along to the last thing, a bbq, and they refuse to give him food unless he has his card. So I got my food, took my sticker off and put it on my shirt. He took the card to the bbq and got a sticker...... Then he found his card in one of his text books lol. So I put the sticker on my shirt on the card and got 2 flash drives since he got one already and had one at home.

I've got pretty much all the memory I need for my computer. I've got a huge external hardrive they I put large files on if my internal one is getting full. I also keep them on there in case I need to go away in an emergency and the odds are I won't get to my computer again.
But as for other things, I got two 1GB flash memory sticks. I want more! When it comes to memory, you can never have too...er...what's the word I'm looking for?

allow me a geek moment:
Storage = Hard Drive Memory = Ram :D that being said, my laptop is maxed out at 2 gigs of ram, but it screams even in newer games like Bioshock with all of the bells and whistles turned on (cant WAIT for 2 dx10 cards...), and I have 400 gigs of internal storage at my fingertips. Plus a 1TB external hard drive that is 80% full... Oh, and I know it was a typo, but I am living for the days of Teragig hard drives... You could have different copies of the Matrix on that. Not the movie, the actual program. :) Look at it this way: 1 terabyte is 1000 gigs. that is: 1,000,000 megabytes which is 1,000,000,000 Kilobytes which is 1,000,000,000,000 bytes which would make a teragig 1,000,000,000,000 gigs. Holy shit :) (for the record, 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes. I'm pretty sure that is what a bajillion million looks like)
