100G back then was more of a satire, something unimaginable.
However, it is true that installed RAM hasn't increased a lot..
Actually it is not very true, in the mid 2000 4 GB was standard and now 16GB is more or less standard.
But, RAM has increased in price A LOT around 2011 when there was a RAM production crisis.
"After the 2011 earthquake in Japan, there was a severe chip shortage of NAND memory and displays."

- gmiller123456 4y agomid 2000 4 GB was standard I don't think so. From [1], in 2006 a Dell XPS M1710 costs $2,845 and had 1Gb of RAM. Inflation adjusted, that's $3,550, so a pretty high end system for the time. Today, you can get a 16Gb laptop for well under $1000. That's a 16x capacity increase in about as many years for 1/4th the price.
