Jim kelley, re: <There will be support for DDR in high end servers(Foster)but not in the desktops currently being discussed.>

Via, meanwhile, said that it believed that DDR 266MHz memory products will be
targeted across servers, desktop systems, notebooks and PDAs.......

Bob Eminian, a VP for Samsung Semiconductors, said: "Because of the existing
PC133 SDRAM infrastructure, and the use of the same packaging and processing
technologies, DDR 266 presents no significant investment in manufacturing facilities.
This means that it will be a simple transition to volume production of DDR SDRAM
parts and PC2100 memory modules for the PC market, which we should expect to
see in 2H'00." ©


Can we look for DDR in future desk tops?

Jim kelley, re: <DDR is not a memory system. It is a chip.>
Help me out here. You continue to refer to an RDRAM chip as a system, but a DDR chip is not.
What are the differences in RIMM properties and DDRDIMM properties that cause this differentiation?
