Jim Kelley re: <At the motherboard level, RDRAM will be much less expensive than DDR. 17 layer motherboards are quite expensive to manufacture and test..>

Statements like that create a loss in credibility.
As for Rambus mobo's, I understand the tier one accounts will only purchase their boards from Intel. Considering the complexities of design and manufacture, (and quality assurance), this makes a lot of sense to me.
It does raise the question, "When will third party DDR mobo's for desk top systems be accepted by tier one accounts?" Please don't answer, since I don't think any of us know the answer to that one yet. <G>
