Sounds like Buffalo is trying to be as popular and as well used as RAMBUS memory. Let's see how many people want to get a memory chip that is as fast as something that is currently available except for the fact that the Buffalo DDRII has much slower latencies. And you can also pay $915 for what you could get in DDR for only $80.
There is a slang term using the word Buffalo and it means that if you have been "Buffaloed" then you have been "fooled". Perhaps this might apply well in this situation.

This price differential is outrageous. But I guess they don't really have many to sell, because even people who consider buying P4EE's wouldn't put these on a shopping list.

I often buy some of the latest and greatest, but no way would I part with a 1125% price premium for something that has slower latencies and NO current benefit whatsoever. You could just as easily send Buffalo a check for the difference, buy the cheaper memory and include a note, saying "got the same thing but for no reason whatsoever I decided to give you 1700 in profit".

Idiots imo, thinking they are going to get some great marketing scheme going by being first to market and not selling a single module.

idiots
