For the 20 years I have been one of those Computer Nerds, who builds his own machines and has been buying the latest and greatest computer gadgets and new machines when I felt I could afford or justify it.

Well, as Dave and I have chatted off-line, about this exact issue, I am preparing to buy a NEW Sony 500 Mhz P-III w/128 or more ram, 13 gig Hd and firewire interface to use for Multimedia purposes.. I can't see ANY reason to wait or even pay more to get Rambus ram in this machine, because I can't imagine how it might really benefit me now or in the coming years. When the applications come out that need 800-1000 mhz and Rambus ram that I absolutely NEED to have I will upgrade again, but I don't see it coming. Even a 500 mhz P-III is WAY beyond the needs of MOST users, including ME!

Regards
don
