Same here. It helps to sell it if you don't say ECC = RAM + extra cash. That's the normal method. I instead say you have two options:

1. RAM that works at this price.

2. RAM that allows more crashes or corruption of your files for slightly-lower price.

The Right Thing suddenly looks more obvious except to cheap skates. Now I just need one with ChipKill built-in. That's the next level of ECC. I haven't heard whether Intel or AMD got something similar.
