lol, “RAM is cheaper than it would’ve been 60 years ago” is such an out-of-touch take. Computers 60 years ago also ran code that you could write on a postage stamp. By those metrics you’d need a contemporary supercomputer and an army of technicians to open a Chrome tab. Besides, by your own graph RAM should be getting cheaper, not suddenly quadruple in price. There’s no reason for that outside corporate greed.
It’s basic supply and demand… If you have customers willing to pay more for your product, you will sell your stock to that person. I think we tend to judge these companies for doing what we would do ourselves.
Lets say you have a lemonade stand and some adult comes along and says he will buy it all for 2 dollars per liter when the normal price is 1 dollar per liter. Are you going to say that he can’t buy all the lemonade and sell it for lower price to the kids? Maybe you would, and that makes you a very good person, but a bad businessman.
