- notorious., on 10/11/2007, -25/+864Ah jesus I misspelled Gigabytes. Goddamnit
- cquinnd, on 10/11/2007, -8/+618Forgiven. If I had that much ram in one machine, I would probably stutter too.
- TKn00b, on 10/11/2007, -3/+236from the topic replies:
"But seriously I can't imagine what can possibly utilize that amount of ram."

- gmprunner, on 10/11/2007, -4/+172More like in 20 years, that'll be a system requirement for Photoshop CS 9.
- Jo9100, on 10/11/2007, -2/+166"What's funny is that in 10 years or so, we'll probably have that much ram in a single stick, and it'd be the minimum required to run Windows Galactica or whatever." - Yossarko
- Claw787, on 10/11/2007, -12/+162In 5 years, it all will fit in your pocket.
- Dumbledorito, on 10/11/2007, -3/+132@brkoph: Sorry dude. Not enough RAM.
- kenvsryu, on 10/11/2007, -2/+123No, I'm just happy to see you.
- xerus, on 10/11/2007, -3/+122My God... 128 gigs of ram look like 5 broken images.
- xigxag, on 10/11/2007, -0/+110Yes, right before the apostrophe.
- carpespasm, on 10/11/2007, -0/+109maybe not that quick, but today's handhelds have processors and different specs that would have been pretty on par with a high end working machine in 1997
- carl201167, on 10/11/2007, -0/+96Digg front page story, June 2017:
"HILARIOUS - people in 2007 thought 128 Gigabytes of RAM was impressive
- Title says it all" - HarryHunt, on 10/11/2007, -5/+100What a waste! Everybody knows that no one will ever use more than 640k RAM.
- crazybrit, on 10/11/2007, -7/+91It's cute when people bash Microsoft to get diggs.
- dbz253, on 10/11/2007, -2/+79it was funny once.
- mrASSMAN, on 10/11/2007, -8/+85Sometimes I just want to extend my fist through my screen and reach the faces of diggers on the other side of the internet.
- TheGreatZarquon, on 10/11/2007, -3/+79Crap. We need a mirror for DuggMirror.
- supermanred, on 10/11/2007, -1/+75Dugg for the pseudo-future name for a future windows build (in the post's comments section) ... Windows Galactica.
I would switch back from OS X for something called Windows Galactica. - HarryHunt, on 10/11/2007, -2/+68By the way, If I had 128 gigs of ram, I'd create a 126 gb ram disk, install all my stuff on it and well...pray that my system won't crash.

Adobe Acrobat - Netrilix, on 10/11/2007, -4/+67But then if the mirror for duggmirror was mirrored by duggmirror, the universe would implode. Do you really want to risk that?
- xShad0w, on 10/11/2007, -5/+66I think this is the computer that Mozilla uses to test firefox 3, no wonder they dont care about RAM consumption
- Wickedboss, on 10/11/2007, -3/+55It's like porn for geek...
- jiggelo, on 10/11/2007, -14/+65You misspelled "..."!
- kosmoX, on 10/11/2007, -3/+51Yes.
- Lorian, on 10/11/2007, -0/+46Did someone post a picture of a mirror again? I think I already blocked him...
- CompIsMyRx, on 10/11/2007, -2/+48Theoretical maximum addressable RAM in a 64-bit OS is 17,179,869,184 gigabytes. This is 2^64 bytes.
- dkokkos, on 10/11/2007, -3/+42any mirrors? i can see the post and all that but the picture is dead...
- lookoutforchris, on 10/11/2007, -2/+37This guy has 17TB of RAM:
http://www.sgi.com/global/de/newsroom/2006/0607-images-lrz-1.html
But it maxes out at 128TB, if you have the cash ... - MacGyver2210, on 10/11/2007, -3/+37I just took a terabyte of my sandwich...
Oh ***** it, just bury me. - JasonCox, on 10/11/2007, -4/+37Windows Galactica... So could does that mean I can start calling virueses 'cylons' and spyware 'skinjobs'?
- Synchro, on 10/11/2007, -2/+35And be the minimum specs needed to run Duke Nukem Forever.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -4/+37Microsoft products are extremely RAM conscious. .NET programs uses way less RAM than those made in Java. Office 2003 works great on 128MB (!) RAM. My Visual Studio 2005 has never used more than 350MB, even after staying 1 week opened on a Pocket PC (!) project with about 10.000 lines of code, and that includes the emulator.
- posneg, on 10/11/2007, -7/+39@gharding
Oh yeah? Well I eat terabytes of RAM for breakfast! - swordedge, on 10/11/2007, -11/+40an insane amount of ram. Where can I get something that can do that for a reasonable price?
- chingy1788, on 10/11/2007, -1/+29Looks like 128MB of RAM 20 years ago
- Subterfug, on 10/11/2007, -4/+30That's a lot of RAM, but I find the 8 dual core Opterons at 2.8 GHz more interesting. That's some processing power right there!
- TheOneGreatX, on 10/11/2007, -2/+24imagine if one of the sticks dies. have fun figuring out which one it is!
also, anyone have any idea how much one of these things would cost a company? - tmcpheeters, on 10/11/2007, -8/+29This post would be much more meaningful if there was actually an image...
- sinkhead, on 10/11/2007, -3/+24Well Firefox runs fine on my machine, I don't know how many decades old yours is? I don't think it works on DOS.
- motheroats, on 10/11/2007, -0/+21who plays games on "high school" servers? Those computers are all busy blocking porn, file sharing, and gmail.
- CptZap, on 10/11/2007, -0/+21@unitedstatians
Yes, and it only takes one bit... 1 - the_snitch, on 10/11/2007, -4/+25@Harryhunt - and then i'd kick out the powercord, and laugh as your 126gb volatile ram disk is wiped, along with all your data.
- titlesaysitall, on 10/11/2007, -1/+19And even still, in the future, the title will never say it all
- unitedstatians, on 10/11/2007, -3/+21Oh baby Jesus!, The people not wanting to put a few of these in their desktop computer, are akin to those that said, "We will never need any more than 16 kb ram."
Never say never! - alexforcefive, on 10/11/2007, -7/+24http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moores_law
- NiLeS, on 10/11/2007, -4/+21You mean http://duggmirror.com/hardware/This_is_What_128_Gigabyes_of_RAM_Looks_Like_Pics/ ?
Doesn't matter - DuggMirror is having problems - revenge7, on 10/11/2007, -1/+18@speaker
I see PDF files so much, I thought I was the only one that ***** hate them. -
