Old enough to remember several memory price boom cycles. In the late 80s at the place I worked we bought a bunch of DRAM for a production run that became delayed because the CPU needed wasn't ready. The DRAM was in a large cardboard box under my desk for a while, acting as a foot rest. I remember the price of DRAM spiked and we calculated that box/foot-rest was now worth more than...one million dollars.
