Chuck, I've already been through all this today, but: Integrated DRAM controllers are a bad idea because it gates the ultimate cost- time to market. DRAM changes all the time, and having an integrated DRAM controller forces CPUs into obsolesence quickly. The time to design and qualify a new spin is extremely expensive, and makes integrated memory controllers a real, real bad idea in the desktop market. The embedded market is a completely different world. CPUs last for 5-10 years in that space, and package cost is of critical importance. Scumbria
