In the case of oil, OPEC is a single country in a market where the US buys from other producers as well
What you say?????
And oh by the way what you didn't see from my example was that. AT&T announces a price hike, and since others didn't follow suit, it adjusts it accordingly. Basically, this is Public Price Fixing. It's pricing-fixing in the open. It takes a few days/weeks to complete. But it still is collusion, under the guise of public disclusure. AT&T went to the public before it went to MCI. But, in the end, the result is the same as if they had gone behind closed doors and announced the price hike.
The reason the price-fixing laws are stupid is simple. Monopolies are not immune to the law of supply and demand. Back when AT&T was the monopoly, people simply made fewer long distance phone calls. An l.d. call was a major family event for some. As the price fell, usage increased.
The "maximum profit" point where supply curven meets the demand curve is the same whether Monopoly, Oligopoly, etc.
In the case of memory. Cheaper memory means in the long term, developers will develop applications that make use of tons of RAM on each machine. Temporarily prices may spike, but long term, they will go towards the maximum profitability point on the supply/demand curve. If DRAM is too expensive, PC's will start using less (relatively speaking).
If DRAM is too cheap, some companies will leave the business.
More exaples of Price Fixing... Simple. Oil (OPEC). Gasoline. Lumber. Health Care (in a major way). Beer. Eggs. Automobiles (Well, the govt. is a player here, with Tariffs, so that foreign auto's don't get too cheap.)

It's actually a stupid law. Anti-price fixing that is.
In fact, the most important commodity in America is readily purchased from a price-fixing cartel (aka OPEC).
Here's the howto on legalized price-fixing in America.
Monday... from the Wall Street Journal, "AT&T announces a 4.3% price increase in consumer long distance rates across the board."
Tuesday... from the NY Times, "MCI announces a 4.35% price increase in consumer long distance rates..."
(Result: A successful price fixing.)
Or it could go like this.... Monday... WSJ Reports "AT&T announces a 6% increase in consumer l.d. rates.
Tuesday... WSJ Report "MCI announces a 3% rate hike."
Wednesday... "WSJ Reports "AT&T announces a 50% decrease in a previously announces rate hike due to customer complaints..."
(Result: A successful price fixing in two stages.)
Shit happens man.

Oh no, you gotta dive in really deep to work with steppers. I've got a bunch of other IC's, such as L293D's for H-Bridge motor control.
Also, I'm into Atmel AVR's for my brains. I specifically use the AT90S2313, and AT90S8535. I bought these from eBay for cheap just a few $'s each.
You can't power a motor using the 5V output pins of the AVR. You've got to send them into the L293D (H-Bridge) to drive the motors.
If you dare dive in. Maybe start with the comp.robotics.misc news group.
It's a very complicated work (Hobby Robotics) and is a very demanding hobby to produce anything of substance.
The first thing you need is a breadboard. This can be integrated with a prototyping environment. But you need something to test out your circuits.
Then, you need soldering, wiring, resistors collections.
Then, go ahead and get yourself a halfway decent at least dual channel o-scope. After searching on eBay for quite some time, I ended up going with striaght to This dude's site and got a 150Mhz o-scope for $225.
Have fun. If you're an EE, you'll feel good about using your education.

Well almost. I've definitely used the stepper motors from disk drives. Steppers can be expensive.
What I'm suprised at is the need for a the 1 - 7805 Regulator IC
I'm pretty sure most disk drives already have a voltage regulator already on board. The part number is no doubt OEM, but they're fairly easy to recognize, since they come close to the main Volatge, and usually use a capacitor in conjunction.
Funny thing is. My programs like K-Meleon seem to take longer and longer to bring up. This is on a home PC used for very little other than surfing. Most the files go on my Linux Samba server.
Either XP is shit, or, XP plus my PC is shit.
