Upgrade

1.6Ghz Processor. If Intel makes one then I see no reason that a motherboard could not be upgraded. I find that speed astounding because after at some point the signals radiate as radio waves and interfere with each other, but I figured that point was around 400Mhz and they seem to top that okay. So maybe Intel can pull it off. It makes no difference to the memory controller what speed (if the interface doesn't have to change to get the speed). It can usually be upgraded with just a bios change.

DRDRAM could get to 512Mb in a couple of years with a 820 and 2 RIMMS. It could be 1Gb with an 840. I think I saw a story in the paper yesterday about Samsung's plans for a 256MB module.
