eplace - <The article you posted in no way argued with my contention that when you combine a PIII with Rambus memory it is easily more expensive than a comparable speed Athlon with SDRAM. That article made no sense at all against that contention.>

I guess I see if differently, since the results indicate a very good price/performance package, which I saw as going to the heart of your argument. Agreed, the more expensive RAMBUS platform wasn't tested, but I guess that was part of my point, i.e., that Coppermine on a price competitive BX platform still held up to the Athlon platform in these tests.

<Besides, I probably went and got on with the other facets of my life.>

Good. I try to get a life on occasion also. :-)
