Careful, John. Read this quote:

In Intel's Platform Bandwidth testing, the DDR SDRAM platform (using a Diamond Multimedia Viper 770 Ultra TNT2 AGP video card) also achieved a high score of over 46 frames per second in DRAM to AGP bandwidth.

and then check out the results from Anandtech:

Intel 820, PC800 RDRAM: 41.4
VIA Apollo Pro 133A, PC133 VC-SDRAM: 37.7

Of course, I don't know what the configuration of Micron's test system was, except that they used a TNT2 Ultra card. I don't even know what chipset Micron used, considering that no chipset out on the market supports DDR yet.

But I think this is just a sign of things to come (i.e. the anti-Rambus coalition's next attack).
