RAM is very expensive right now.

I just removed 128 megs of RAM from an old computer and am considering listing it on eBay to pay off my mortgage.

		I wonder what year past 128M ram would pay off mortgage. Maybe 1985

We're talking kilobytes, not gigabytes. And it isn't DDR5 either.

Yeah, even an average household can afford 40k of slow DRAM if they cut down on luxuries like food and housing.

Maybe the rich can but not all retro computer enthusiasts are rich.

If you can afford to spend a few dollars without sacrificing housing or food, you are being financial irresponsible.

Busy cut down on the avocado toast!

Then I can afford eggs, ram and a studio appartment!

Maybe in Ohio

		No apartment then, maybe just green, eggs, and RAM.
