richard,

From the link you quoted:

Fujitsu Limited and Fujitsu Microelectronics, Inc. (FMI) today introduced samples of the company's new 64 Megabit Fast Cycle RAM (FCRAM(TM)) with Double Data Rate (DDR) SDRAM interface.

Designed for graphics and multimedia applications, the FCRAM features high speeds and low power consumption.

...

The [simulation] model utilizes Denali's Specification of Memory Architecture (SOMA) language to support the full-timing, full-function simulation needed by system designers to verify complex designs.


This device is NOT intended for PC main memory.

Fujitsu do NOT expect system implementation to be straightforward.

The real fun with DDR will come when motherboard manufacturers try to support multiple memory modules from different vendors. If the same quality standards are applied to DDR systems as have been applied to Rambus the cost differential will be much less than some people here seem to believe.
