I suggest you read the following before you speak out of place in the future.

On FSB's here:
dramreview.com

And on latency here:
dramreview.com

The funny thing for me is that within 24 hours I heard 2 things from AMD fanatics that I did not hear from them in 1 year.

#1 - On clock for clock, Pentium III is faster than Athlon (what ever happened to all the: "Athlon is faster than P3 and AMD is better than Intel crap". Was it all like just a bunch of BS? Cause I mean you guys, you need to get your lies straight in the future cause it doesn't look good. ;-)
#2 - Foster now also supports RDRAM (in fact Foster has only been DDR from the very beginning till it lost the exclusivity to RDRAM. And that is a big win for Rambus and a huge loss for DDR)

I'm sorry to disappoint you fellows, but instead of being caught on lies and wasting your efforts here, it would be more important to devote your time in fixing all the problems with the vaporware DDR. It is heading out to be the biggest disaster in high tech history. And unfortunately for AMD, I don’t think they have an alternative plan as far as I know, and you can count on Intel's marketing machine to dance all over AMD's grave with such a big PR disaster as the DDR one, if/when it happens. Cause so far, the reported delays from ALi, and VIA, as well as the recent info on major issues with DDR stick incompatibilities, do not look good at all for DDR. Not good at all.

I’ll say a few prayers for AMD. They’ll need them.
