Dave, Most corporations, and many individuals (including myself) try to buy systems that will serve for 3-4 years, that can handle more advanced applications, and won't be obsolete tomorrow. Therefore we buy "extra headroom" in our systems. You can argue with me about it, but most corporations follow this model and our arguing isn't going to change the way they buy systems. How do you know you are buying "extra headroom"? I have not seen any real world or synthetic benchmark showing any improvements of performance using RDRAM. You know, I am selling these parts that will give you even more headroom. I am selling them at halada.com This part is actually just a sticker. You stick in on the case of the computer, and it will give you twice the headroom of RDRAM. Combined with RDRAM, it will give you 4x the headroom. You can't really measure it, but take my word for it. Each one of these stickers is only $999.99, or i you buy 2, you can get them for $1,899.99. The stickers work cumulatively, each improving your head room more. The only limit is the surface area of your case. RDRAM, the chipsets associated with it, and faster processors WILL enable new applications. There's a difference. If the current chipsets can't use RDRAM effectively, again how are you buying the "extra headroom"? Are you going to upgrade the chipset on your motherboard? Or are you going to throw out the whole computer and keep your RDRAM? Joe
