I'm amazed it's even possible to cram that much memory into a desktop machine! The cost of the equipment is basically nothing.

Look what this sort of a machine would have cost you 5 years ago. You'd have to go with an enterprise machine with memory risers, and the memory would need to be ECC... and you'd end up spending about $20k or something crazy. This machine is more like $2k. That's madness.
