"DDR speeds are expected to double over the next year..."

ROTFLMAO!!! Vaporware upon vaporware upon vaporware...

Carl, did I tell you that the mothership's power supply will enable it to do 2 * c next year?? There is one in low earth orbit right now; you know, the one you were communicating with via your tin foil antennae back in May!

We'll believe it when we see it, bub.

Hi all; I got a PM complaint about my use of the phrase "tar baby" with respect to Sony being stuck with RDRAM. No disrespect was intended, here's the dictionary.com entry for the phrase:

tar baby (tär bb) 
  n. 

      A situation or problem from which it is virtually impossible to
      disentangle oneself.

  [After “Bre'r Rabbit and the Tar Baby,” an Uncle Remus story by Joel

  Chandler Harris.]
