Elmer,
As a Compaq shareholder it's a little tough to get the bitterness out so excuse me on that one. (AV)

OTOH...right now, any benchmarks with RAMBUS are a non-factor, IMHO.
I have my doubts about too many people in their right minds paying a $grand a 128k stick for RDRAM so they can just bring the performance of a Flopper up to an Athlon on selected benchmarks.
It makes no sense.
Now if Intel can get a production worthy 800 MHZ chip for sale then kudos to them...
As far as those "pimply faced kids". In a few years they will be making the decisions on what to buy for large corporations.

Jim
