Stevie Wonderless - re: "Wouldn't 100000 mobos scrapped cost DELL more than some dram price difference? "

Clue - DELL is a BUILD TO ORDER PC manufacturer.

They didn't have 100,000 RAMBUS motherboards in inventory - or even ON ORDER !!!

When DELL gtes ORDERS for those RAMBUS PCs, it THEN THEY ORDER the Motherboards.

JIT - GET IT ?

You need to see the BIG PICTURE !
