"In my mind, the still low price of DDR3 adds support for my belief that consumers have no understanding of the fact that perfectly good used computers are available to anyone who is fed up with the high prices of new computers and parts. They don't seem to understand that they don't need a new computer to surf the Internet, write a letter, or talk to their friends on social media. They can do all of that easily with a good 8-12 year old laptop [or desktop computer] running Linux."
