jim kelly, It was designed to use the Dimm connectors. What you left out is that it has 72 GND Pins and 24 No connects on the RIMM. Can you elaborate on DDR vs. RDRAM pincount? Are you saying that RDRAM uses a DIMM connector that has been standardised? If that's the case, why didn't Rambus design a proprietory connector without the 24 No connects? You make it sound like the ground pins are unnecessary. Why not get rid of them? You would end up with less than 90 pin RIMM, and a savings of 10 cents on each $550 RIMM. Joe
