Core memory used to cost $0.01 per bit. Consider your own computer. What would be a rough estimate of the cost if memory cost is $0.01/bit? If memory were still at that price what would be the effect on the computer industry?
What will be an ideal response?
My laptop has 4 GB memory or 32 Gbits
Roughly: 32,000,000,000 bits
@ $0.01/bit
$320,000,000.00
My laptop would cost over 320 million dollars.
This would dramatically shrink the industry!
