Hello Ben H., Your comment struck a note. It seems to me that much of the craze for larger and larger densities misses the mark. With true 32bit OS's and multi-threaded apps running simultaneously and now video telephony coming online, albeit at a snails pace, PC's of the future will be crying for bandwidth not density. If you have a CPU running at 200+Mhz, which will be common next year, pumping out the threads, memory will be hard pressed to keep up unless something is done about the bandwidth. IMHO, it would seem to be far more advantageous to have 32Mb of memory capable of sustained data access and recovery rates of 500-1000Mb/sec than it would be to have 128Mb running at 250-500Mb/sec.
