£159.20 for 8GB of Server RAM for my DELL Poweredge 840 - Amazing!
So who remembers when 1GB cost a few £K's? It wasn't that many years ago.
Anyway, thought I'd take the plunge into Windows 2008 and upgrade my rack servers running blogcasts etc...

Not sure there is any excuse anymore for not maxing your boxes server memory out at these silly cheap prices.
