Has anyone asked Rambus directly about the Dell benchmark figures? Do we have a good contact to ask?

ratan lal, I agree, but some also suggest that RMBS is faster, CONSUMES less power, which contributes to the higher cost. There are some however (I posted some time ago) that claim while RDRAM costs more that when combined with the chipset the overall cost will be less. In any event since you want seek tech info could you please explain the following to me since I am not a techie. I found it on another thread: >>I think Intel's GTL+ protocol used for Intel P6 processors may have violated Rambus's protocol used in their proprietary Rambus architecture. From the description I have read, they both packetize I/O.<<
