Milehigh - RE: "It would seem to be positive news for RMBS as the jury was still out on whether or not the K7 would support SDRAM or RDRAM...!?!?"

Here is what an AMD guy said unofficially -

"Initial K7 systems will be based on PC100 SDRAM, since this will be the only mass market technology available in June when the K7 is scheduled to launch. The memory market is currently in a bit of chaos, and since AMD is not driving the memory market, we will have to adapt to whatever memory technology emerges as the winner.
We should have RDRAM support by the end of the year, and there may be support for PC133 and DDR-SDRAM."

When the K7 goes to RDRAM, it won't be a big deal for RAMBUS because K7 shipments won't be as large as Coppermine shipments.
