Re: only the Intel board has trouble with Rambus... Doubtful

This is very unlikely, Compaq also makes their own camino board and profusion board. They are trumpeting that their profusion board doesn't have the merced problem as a sign of the value added from Compaq. They would certainly do the same if their camino board were OK.

<only the Intel board has trouble with Rambus and that everyone else has no problem>
I am afraid that this is not true. I have "heard"
of a theory that the ramBUS will never work
in the proposed bussed distributed configuration
(with bus flight length longer than 1/8 of clock
period) unless extraordinary efforts are put into
low-inductance packaging and connectors, with
corresponding price tag. Of course, IF the
"theory" is correct...
