Dave: using KZNerd's logic, AMD would be more successful if it offered every choice available. Of course, by doing so it would bankrupt itself. So, where is the fine line? Does a company need to offer technologies or products it does not believe are the finest (or the most suited for its corporate strategies) just because it can? or because KZ feels it should? Or because I feel it should?

Dave, Intel has already committed to building a chipset in 2000 that supports PC133 SDRAM. So all this talk about Intel forcing people off of SDRAM is becoming moot, since it seems for the mid-term, both SDRAM and RDRAM will coexist on Intel's roadmap. And no, I don't think Intel's upcoming chipset will support PC133 through a performance-sapping MTH bridge. Rather, I think the chipset will be some derivative of Camino or 810e. I don't think it's that hard to modify either one to support PC133. Tenchusatsu
