Re: "Intel should consider "execution" out the door for whomever put that Rambus roadmap into play."

Putting it into play wasn't the problem - that was a 1996/1997 decision.

Having NO BACKUP plan was the REAL problem - as well as sticking with RAMBUS for over 1 1/2 years beyond the point where RAMBUS benefits were difficult - if not impossible - to demonstrate - was the second problem.

However, Intel seems to have seen the error of its ways - the i815E looks like a life saver.

Now, if Intel can get SDRAM - and DDR SDRAM support for the Pentium 4 within 9 months, they will be on a fast track to recovery.
