Makes me think how many blue screens/crashes I've experienced over the years on my desktop could have been avoided by ECC. On a global level, think of all of that time & productivity lost due to an arbitrary policy/penny pinching.

Capitalism drives tech forward, and then very quickly stifles it once it's proven you can sell it.

It's sad thinking of where we could be today if mega-corps had less incentive to do this.

Edit: to the down voter, please explain why you think my opinion is wrong?
