Micron to Install 8GB DDR3 Memory Into Laptops

Micron Technology, a leading maker of memory chips and modules, this week said it plans to make 4GB DDR3 SO-DIMMs for mobile computers and small form-factor systems. Two of such devices will enable notebooks or small systems with 8GB of memory, the amount that is not even used on the desktop market nowadays.

“With our new 4 GB DDR3 modules, we are allowing users to easily take advantage of the performance benefits that increased memory provides,” said Brian Shirley, vice president of Micron’s memory group.
