Is there any RAM out there that fits 4GB on a single DIMM? DDR2 or DDR3 it doesn't matter. If not, how long do you think it will take for manufacturers to fit it (as the process shrinks)?

4GB Kingston DIMM: http://www.nextag.co.uk/Kingston-Value-RAM-4GB-83895822/uk/prices-html
Could't find many more. I think 4GB DIMM's will become common very soon.

Kingston recently also demoed 4 GB DDR3 sticks, totaling to 24 GB on an X58 board, pretty wicked, they were running 10 Vistas and Crysis on one of them, still there was free RAM...
DDR3 1066 sticks seem to have hit retail.

I saw on Anandtech a little while ago that Samsung is ramping up DDR3 production this year and has 4GB modules in the works.
I would guess by 2010 we can expect overclocking 4GB modules. Possibly sooner, but they'll cost a butt load.
The 4GB modules available now aren't very fast, mainly for servers right?

Yep. FB-DIMMs and a few select DDR3-1066MHz sticks.

I want to say 128GB or 1028GB.
I've seen super computers using terabytes worth, I think there's certain ways to get around that limitation if there is one.

Hmh. It could be 16384 PB too... 
May be quite a while before that happens, humanity oughta have destroyed themselves before that's even a realistic thought.

Google Memristor and racetrack memory if you want to see what we'll have soon.

I was hoping to get 2x4GB DDR3 in Q4'09 to Q1'10, but it probably won't come down in price by then...
