Joe , good article. I liked it, and it certainly looks like DDr will be here to stay. After tinma delay, I wonder if Intel abandoned Rambus for Willy also. I hope not. Rambus is our friend. I was disappointed AMD didn't announce 1.+ ghz processors and the reviews were tepid, so I entered a limit order to sell part of my AMD at 95 before I went to work. With AMD dropping today I will make out okay, but I wish they had at least demoed or even mentioned higher speeds to get demand going. Demand may be fine now, but when Dresden hits 2000 wsw, thats 5 mil chips a quarter extra and that will take a lot of demand.

Joe - RE: "Tom's report from Computex"

It sure is great to see all that DDR support.

AMD, the video card makers, Serverworks, heck, even Transmetta (hmm, I gotta come up with a new name for them ;) ) is using DDR. The only thing that can hold it back this year is a bad launch. It seems like the DRAM makers are timing the release to be in sync with the release DDR chipsets. There isn't much room for error.
