Re: "Note: an executive said "PC makers", which means
that the makers are at their own in board
development. It seems apparent that even
Intel has no clue how to deal with the
problem of 800MHz data switching while
providing memory expandability and upgradability.
Otherwise why this "problem" would surface
out in the first place if Intel is so smart and
already has a rock-solid solution?"

Clearly you are the only one who is capable of understanding these problems. Obviously Intel needs you. Nobody else is on your level...

Ali,

If engineering the 200MHz Athlon mobos was a pain is the neck, then engineering the 400MHz Camino mobos would be even more so. May be AMD can help Intel just to make sure that they don't abandon the sinking DRDRAM ship.
