    From out here, the market looks very closed - pro the US and against
    Japan. A while back the Japanese were supposed to be "dumping" cheap
    RAM in the US - until the US put trade restrictions in place.

    But here, fairly close to Japan, if one wants to buy RAM the
    cheapest place to get it from appears to be through the US.

    Wierd.
