Yikes!  I didn't mean to launch a larger debate on
regulation.

My comment about my Libertarian viewpoints where more about
self-awareness and self-admitting bias.  Again, I didn't mean
to launch a general discussion on regulation outside the
scope of the RAM manufacturer/supplier v. Tier-1 OEM debate.

I just merely wanted to point out that lawyers and corp v.
corp litigation have more to do with this than protecting
consumers.  The lawsuits and judgements I've seen as of late
are constantly reminding me why our technology lead in this
country is being reduced to virtually nothing.

Which is why I'm not a big fan of these types of judgements,
especially when the primary complainers and beneficiaries
(Tier-1 OEMs) are off up-charging consumers just as much (if
not more).  Consumers are left out to dry in all cases.
