Gene, As for the GX200, I wonder how many will buy it with only 64MB's? More than if Dell priced it with 128M! <G> Quite honestly, I doubt that the majority of corporate systems need more than that given the basic stuff that most people do. RDRAM obviously won't offer any advantage (since most of this stuff could probably be done on Pentium 133's). Between the Precision line offering only RDRAM and the new Optiplex lines offering only RDRAM, it appears as if Dell has decided that RDRAM really is going to be the standard for all their systems, even if you need one with just a lowly 600Mhz processor and 64M RAM. By doing this, they're saying that RDRAM is not just for the high-performance systems. Keep in mind that the Optiplex line is Dell's real entrant for corporate America as it is a "managed" system. It would be very, very interesting to find out how much Dell is paying for RDRAM. Dave p.s. Since 64Mb RDRAM chips seem to be a non-starter, I'd assume a 64M RIMM is just 4 128Mb chips on the RIMM.
