I'm glad I upgraded my hardware when I did when our dollar was 8% higher than the U.S. ! I expect in 2009 for prices to go up significantly, for RAM and every electronic component not only because of our dollar that will go back down to levels it was once, but because of factories closing and reduced production - much like the OPEP cutting on production to get prices back up - the days of cheap hardware are almost over and it will stay like that for years to come.
