" DRAM is a widely used form of computer memory that is found in many products including personal computers, servers, and MP3 players. Regardless of the brand name, most of these types of products produced between 1998 and 2002 contained DRAM chips.
“This price-fixing wrongly forced consumers and state agencies to pay more for computers and other high-tech products containing DRAM chips,” Attorney General Bob Ferguson said Tuesday. “This settlement will provide some monetary relief for affected consumers.”
The total multi-state settlement is $310 million. The amount of money returned to Washington state consumers depends on how many claims are filed and the types of products they purchased, Ferguson said."
