Re: IBM introduces DDR RAM... I'm not sure who the soon-to-sing fat lady is in the whole Intel/Rambus opera, but I think I hear warm up noises coming from the orchestra pit. :-) Dan

McMannis - Our Very Own Bam Bam Intel-less Ja Ja Man !!! Re: "IBM introduces DDR RAM. Looks like another nail in Intel/RAMBOs plot to take over the roadmap." WRONG AGAIN, McJimbo !!!!! That $61 LOSS of Intel Upside sure has muddled your thinking !!! Why...read this little comment about IBM and Rambus !!! "IBM has no plans now to use DDR memory in its high-performance workstation line, a spokesman said. IBM has introduced workstations using the Intel 840 chipset and Direct Rambus memory based on technology from Rambus Inc., but it also is also continuing to market other workstation models using Intel's 440BX chip set and SDRAM memory. " You should do a better job of researching your anti-Intel posts !! You really need to do a better job of "talking down" Intel's stock - so you won't FEEL SO BAD for Merrill Fl.Lynching your Intel shares at $76 last November !!! You are aware that Intel set its FIFTH STRAIGHT ALL TIME HIGH in FIVE CONSECUTIVE TRADING DAYS, aren't you JimmyMac? And that makes TWENTY FIVE ALL TIME HIGHS since you Flynched in November !!! BAM BAM !!!! $61 7/16 - down the McMannis TOILET !!! Paul {=============================} IBM to ship servers using 256-Mbit DDR memory chips By Jack Robertson, Mar 21, 2000 (3:09 PM) URL: /story/OEG20000321S0044 IBM Corp. today claimed it will be the first OEM to introduce server computers using double data rate (DDR) 256-megabit synchronous DRAMs in the third quarter of 2000. The computer giant also said it is now sampling PC1600 and PC2100 DDR modules, which will be used in the IBM server line and sold to other OEMs. Since IBM's Microelectronics does not make a 128-Mbit SDRAM, its entry into the DDR arena will be one of the first to use the 256-Mbit memory chip. The DDR DIMMs will be available in 2566-megabyte, 512-Mbyte and 1-gigabyte configurations. The IBM server group will use the DDR modules in the company's Netfinity and NUMA-Q lines, as well as S/390 and AS/400 mainframe servers and RS/6000 RISC server line. IBM has no plans now to use DDR memory in its high-performance workstation line, a spokesman said. IBM has introduced workstations using the Intel 840 chipset and Direct Rambus memory based on technology from Rambus Inc., but it also is also continuing to market other workstation models using Intel's 440BX chip set and SDRAM memory.
