    Good, this is what I was hoping for, especially with demand for AI datacenters shrinking. I hope Micron hates themselves for killing off Crucial when this happens

    It’s a good first step, but I already know they will be fine with only 300% of previous prices. They aren’t investing all this money to sell to the lowest bidder.

      I mean we’ve seen how prices for Chinese solar and EVs dropped once production ramped up, I expect we’ll see the same with memory and eventually chips too.
