You guys are too much.<G>

RDRAM is already in volume manufacturing. You talk as though it can't be made. then you assert with no evidence to support you that the DDR and DDR-II busses will be vastly superior. This is goofy reasoning.<G>

I have done lots of engineering for high volume PC board manufacturing in my past lives. Never got stopped by any of these problems which you seem to think are almost insurmountable. A lot of my boards were manufactured by Taiwan and Hong Kong.

Go ahead and remove the pins and solder connections from your DDR chips if you can. I want to see this modern engineering wonder. Perhaps you can eliminate the discrete caps and resistors too. DDR is so great you can get rid of all your stubs too. <LOL>

Simply put, my point is the criticisms made by BILOW of the RDRAM transmission line bus are also true also of the DDR-II bus. Thus if you can follow BILOWs logic to its natural conclusion DDR is a dead end memory technology. DDR-II is dead, dead , dead. <LOL>

The 820 motherboard according to INTEL specs is 4 layers.
This is not a big deal.
