Blake,

P4 launch time is approaching and it seems that the attack on Rambus' license, benchmarks and the adequacy of the P4 arcitecture is reaching a new fever pitch.

More comparisons between non existent "products" and real one year old Intel products show the superiority of the products you can not buy over those that you can buy.

Now we have Anand cooking the benchmark results on the 820/PC to show the superiority of the DDR. We have The Register be adopted and approved by AMD as an official organ of Jerry Sanders. Perhaps Anand wants similar status to the Register and Tom's hardware and Inqst.

How come these high performance Athlon systems are not making any headway at all into the workstation market while the 840/RDRAM systems have taken 75% of the worldwide market? I guess those workstation owners are all fools. <G>

I guess Inqst and the rest of the official organs see no problem with the lack of industry standard specifications on DDR and DDR controllers. I guess there is no problem with a "major launch" of a new product through second and third tier white box vendors.<g> No major OEM has indicated any interest in the DDR platforms. There is no compelling reason to adopt these risky platforms either becuase they show no performance advantages over the PC133 systems and they have the horrible liability of incompatible sticks.

Unfortunately, this thread is being dominated by the AMDroids. I get some respite from seeing these clowns take a big hit on their AMD and MU stock.
