They just spent a lot of time researching what memories to support in their next generation chip. They initially assumed that they would have to put an RDRAM (Rambus) interface in, but after talking to Samsung, Toshiba, and NEC about trends in memories, they are dropping the RDRAM interface and putting in a DDR DRAM interface. Samsung, Toshiba, and NEC seem to think DDR DRAM has a much brighter future than RDRAM. The reasons are exactly as you stated, RDRAM is more expensive, but has very little performance gain. The RDRAM interface is also extremely complex to implement, indeed it seems like something two professors would dream up. Just some more anecdotal evidence that the market is moving away from Rambus.
