And why have RAM prices increased?
Apple explains in its press release:
‘The rapid expansion of AI data centers has created an extraordinary surge in demand for memory and storage" and that the company has "never seen a component price increase this much, this quickly."
The article was hurriedly updated to include the above - but it doesn't explain the point further. Just, RAM price increases are to blame.
Shockingly irresponsible to the reader.
