Dave,

Based on the problem being driving 3 RIMMs instead of 2, it sounded to him (he's hypothesizing, remember) like a Camino problem, specifically the drivers. If it was a Camino problem, he guessed that it would take 3 months to fix. The motherboards that have been built to date would have to be scrapped, since the chipsets are usually surface-mounted.


If you mean the bus drivers, this still puzzles me. The load on them will not be dependent on the length of the transmission line - this is inherent in an accurately terminated transmission line.

Hi Dave

"If it was a Camino problem, he guessed that it would take 3 months to fix."

In which case, it will never be fixed. INTC will go straight on to Carmel, the 840. Remember INTC ain't got many places to go except forward, because PC100 is already squeezed to the limits, PC133 won't
bring much more and DDR ain't there

Alan
