Sure, Dave, sure. All these future apps are just waiting to spring forth and liberate computer users who had the vision to pay $500 extra for a PC with Rambus. The truth is that most of these apps will run faster with PC133, CL2 and they will run faster yet with VC Dram.

But I'm sure that Intel will be able to contrive some software somehow for which Rambus will be a little faster.

However the biggest source of baloney on Monday will not be the choice of the benchmark (the Bogus benchmark issue) but rather the Contrived comparison by which Intel will take a system with the fastest Rdram that anyone can make with their latest chip set and compare it to ???? What will it be? A system with the old chip set with hohum PC100 sdrams? A system with the new chip set but an MTH kludge? A proper comparison would be against a modern chip set with PC133, CL2 sdrams.

Of course maybe VIA will provide us with that comparison! If Intel doesn't get a court order to prevent it.
