This again shows the total lack of common knowledge at Pauleron's. "Why in the world did every major PC manufacturer switch to more expensive SDRAM over EDO ram? For a 2% Speed improvement?" The only thing you can do is copy and paste information from 3rd party, analyzing a few sources and compiling your "own" and "correct" opinion is a very sad way of trying to be right. Some friends of mine, (talking "hey, my cursor moves on the screen!") even those hardware-dumbasses know why the industry switched from EDO to SDRAM. EDO does not alow more than 66 Busclock. BEDO could go "up to 83 MHz", but it was very expansive, and never really got through. Sdram had much more potential, and thus retailers made the step from EDO to SDRAM. It's simply the 66-100 debacle. Go take some sleep, Pauleron. Michael da Kota, From Holland With Love.
