I imagine pople stealing RAM from cars.
no, they'll just buy RAMDoubler!
Like catalytic converters?
They're almost certainly going to be soldered chips instead of traditional ram sticks.
Where there's meth there's a way
Soldered, and often in hard to get to places in the vehicle. it'd be easier and more lucrative to strip the wiring for the copper.
No way they would make it upgradable or user serviceable lol
They just get really fast and accurate with soldering irons. Until later ones come along absolutely surgical with a flame thrower.
