RE: <But the next sentence: "This will then use the kind of power that John describes", is not correct. This assumes that the only termination is the parallel type, which is not the case.>

I believe the expectation for DDR and DDR-II is that they will use series termination at the source and pullup termination at the destination. So the two resistors are in series for power calculations and also much higher resistance than in the Rambus case.
