Bill, <From what others have said the Athlon bus with the 133 will outperform the rambus current offering.>

That's like pointing to the benchmarks comparing Athlon on PC100 vs. Pentium III on PC133 (VIA chipset) and saying that PC100 will outperform PC133.

A much better comparison would be an Athlon running on PC133 vs. Athlon running on Rambus. I would bet that the Athlon-Rambus combination runs significantly faster than the Athlon-PC133 combo. I'd even guess that it will run slightly faster than an Athlon-DDR combo. That "superior internal bus structure" is dependent on the memory subsystem, not independent as you suggest.
