Chuck,

My take on Intel and PC133 is that DRDRAM offers no advantage on the motherboard, and Intel is finally admitting that they made a mistake.

The value of DRDRAM lies in different types of processors, like graphics and network processors, which burst long groups of data. CPU's only burst one cache line at a time, which makes DRDRAM exactly the wrong solution.
