RE: <The Dell specs for the new Optiplex GX200 and GX300, which were released by accident back on 8/30, indicate three gold plated RIMM slots supporting 64MB to 1GB ECC or non-ECC PC700 RDRAM. I have a printed copy in front of me.>

Thanks, I must have had a memory lapse on the 3 RIMM slots. Although notice the PC700. Perhaps you can provide more slots at 700 MHz and what I saw somewhere was an 800 MHz mobo with only two slots.

Also, 1 GB would have to be using 256 MBit Rdrams since I am very certain that there is a hard limit of 32 chips on a Rambus channel since the protocol only have 5 bits for device. I think that the 1GB refers to the future and today max memory would be 3 slots x 128 MB = 384 MB.
