Steve - Re:"Is Itanium going to use SDRAM? I seem to recall it was. "

Yes - the 460GX uses SDRAM - and can work with PC66, PC 100 or PC133 - but the higher speeds are not necessary.

The 460GX utilizes four separate memory banks and addresses them in an interleaved fashion, getting its high bandwidth in this manner.

The one draw back is that it requires memory to be in four banks at once, and upgraded that way, placing constraints on the granularity of memory sizes.

This should be no problem for your applications, apparently.
