I've heard 75% have RDRAM but would like to have a link.
"The second quarter was difficult for most personal workstation vendors, who struggled with RDRAM shortages
while trying to meet customer demand. Despite the supply constraints, the percentage of systems shipping with
RDRAM increased from 38% in the first quarter to 75% in the second quarter," said Kara Yokley, analyst in IDC's
Workstations research group.

According to new figures from IDC, Direct Rambus DRAM was installed in 75 per cent of the 270,000 personal workstations shipped in Q2.

Shipments in the Windows personal workstation market fell seven per cent in the quarter, principally due to a drop in Hewlett-Packard and Compaq sales, while Dell shipments - which only use Direct RDRAM - rose eight per cent in the quarter. ®
