In a settlement, Samsung agreed today to pay $90 million USD for participating in illegal DRAM price-fixing practices. Samsung and several other major DRAM companies were all caught up in bitter court ordeals involving business conspiracies that affected the bottom line for several major OEMs and system integrators.
Now Samsung doesn’t have to feel left out since they were the only ones not originally affected. What sucks is that none of the actual end-users who paid -more- for their ram will be compensated. If anything, we can hope that this type of thing will not happen again.
