    "Initially Toshiba simply reduced shipments and built up inventory to lessen supply and try and drive prices up"

    Surely by driving up prices is going against the market requirements. They clearly have no idea that consumers are waiting for cheaper prices. R&D costs should now be covered which is usually one of the reasons behind high prices to begin with. I was expecting by now I'd have SSD in every computer.

    I wonder how much margin they still get after this move. I wonder if they really really pushed how much cheaper they could go
