Carl, <Now the apples-to-apples comparison is done. Here's the link. Care to comment?>

No comment. Results speak for themselves.

RDRAM acceptance will now depend on Pentium 4 platforms, especially since dual-DDR is rather tough to design, and single-DDR might not be enough to take on dual-RDRAM (but might present a great price/performance platform).

If Intel and Rambus' initiative to design a lower-cost, lower-power RDRAM doesn't produce fruit, RDRAM will be relegated to niches. On the other hand, as far as I can see, RDRAM is firmly entrenched in the workstation niche and will probably stay there for the next two years.

Bilow,
Re: Micron's Samurai

Maybe I'm missing something here and you can correct me.

What does the following mean?

swiftsolution.com

Let me repeat it in case you missed it:
"Micron announced a DDR chipset early this year, but said it would only start production of it if there were no other suppliers. Now that Via and Acer Labs have announced plans, Micron will scrap its DDR chipset."

This is dated Sep 20th, 2000, which was just 2 days ago.

So... are you now also posting obsolete FUD? Man oh man... It gives real meaning to... DDR is dead dead dead. Cause it actually is! Please explain. ;-) ;-) ;-)
