Pomp, If Intel were the only game in town, your opinion would be 100% justified. But in chipsets, Intel lost a lot of market share to Via and Server Works. These 2 companies may soon have as much to say on the selection of memory types as Intel. As far as Willamette, it seems that Intel is not going to license the bus, so Intel will be the only game in town for those chips. But Willamette will not have a monopoly on the high end, since it will face strong competition from AMD microprocessors. As far as I know, there are no RDRAM chipsets for Athlon chips in the pipeline. Joe
