yes vadim, i was there too.

various inadequate hardware has contributed more than its share to the
belief that the problem was "memory" (and on those boxes it certainly
was).

however, to the degree this has caused people to conclude that the real
problem is "just" memory it is a red herring and a grave disservice.  this
topic has caused more witch-hunting and suspension of reason by otherwise
smart people than anything in recent memory.
