Petz, <Intel overstated the problem because the real problem is poor performance and high cost of RIMM's.>

Performance isn't a problem, except for the short term. High cost of RIMMs can be a problem, though I'm not sure if the recent hike in DRAM memory prices also affects RDRAM or not.

The best outcome I could think of is moving the 820 Camino launch to coincide with the Coppermine launch in late October. Some people will argue that this sort of introduction makes more sense in the first place, considering that even without the Camino delay, many OEMs were waiting for Coppermine before releasing 820-based PCs.
