Ya but what happens when Solid state hard drives come into play. And they will be soon.

I, a asp.net guy will be able to compete with Redis then.

If RAM gets so cheap that Solid state hard drivers will come into play you'll have your Linux box with 512 GB of Ram by default. Btw I'm happy with ASP guys competing with Redis :) Also if someone stole what's good about Redis and creates FooBaredDB that is just better I'll drop Redis and use FooBaredDB.
