..and RAM was ghastly expensive? And then we got older, and RAM was cheap (Cheap as chips I guess you would say over there..) And then we got even older and fatter, and RAM was ghastly expensive? My how the world goes 'round.

(Although for the record, I see something even denser and ghastlier on Crucial's US site today as well)

Kingston had unbuffered ECC DDR3-1333 modules and kit back in September 2009.
But they cost more than registered ECC DDR3-1333 4 GB modules.

I already 12GB of faster high-end DDR3-1600 sticks, using two triple channel kits, on an i7 X58 mobo, at a lot less than 8GB of these pricey, slower sticks!

I doubt if I will need to upgrade for a long while!

For those in the states, I just checked the usa page and the price is a whopping $299.99 or a dual-channel kit for $599.99.

With a price of $75/GB this reminds me a bit of 2005.
