Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 18 10:25 pm)
Subject: OT: Memory
Manufactuers over produced Due to the availability of "cheap credit " for supplies and labor during the first years of this century So there is a worldwide Glut in all semi conductor based storage devices debasing its prices
Now that this Cheap credit is no longer available so they have to try to salvage what profits they can at Fire sale prices until supply and demand fin Equilibrium
However anyone who lost all his poser files etc. to an internal HD crash really has no excuse for not having backed up considering the low prices of storage these days.
Oh yes!! I paid about $3000 for the new "fast" Mac G3 in 1996
230 MhZ processor 6 gig HD and 32 MEGs of Ram
Cheers
Unfortunately, there are people who can't afford the price, no matter how "cheap" it is.
"It is good to see ourselves as
others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we
are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not
angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to
say." - Ghandi

Very True with the constant decline in the purchasing power of the dollar
what's cheap for some may not be so for others
however see threads over at DAZ where people "confess" having spent
X $$thousands hoarding content but make no real provisions for storage
space to back it up and often end up losing it when the inevitable happens.
Cheers
Part of the cheapness is due to Moore's Law. But I heard that was starting to slow down.
WARK!

(using Poser Pro 2014 SR3, on 64 bit Win 7, poser units are inches.)

Or perhaps demand is just unrealisticly speeding up

basically they are running into something called 'Electron Smearing'.

Yikes. I am grateful for capitalism's effect on productivity. Can you believe how fast things change and improve and the price plumments in tech?
Random Access Memory for PCs has now reached the level of $11.74 per GIGABYTE!
I just got a flash from Amazon for 2x2 800 MHz Corsair high quality RAM for $46.99.
That's 4 gig for $46. Astonishing.
In my life in computers, I once paid $500 to upgrad a mac 128K to 512K so it could be called a "Fat Mac!" That's not gigs. It's not megs. It is from 128 Kilobytes to 512 kilobytes.
I'd post the Amazon link but god forbid you do anything around here that looks like advertising.
