I am glad you came back. Since I just bought some RMBS during this downturn, I am very interested in this debate. Is it true that Intel will only release the P4 with RDRAM? It is due out next month. If it is as good as they claim it will be, we may see the fortunes of RMBS reverse once again. The P4 CPU speeds are 1.4GHz and 1.5GHz, I believe. Your comparison data shows the CPU speed of 800 and 933MHz. This does not disprove Tinker and Thomas's assertion that RDRAM works better in higher speed CPUs. 800 maybe fast for some, but not for the CPUs coming out in the next couple of years. I have heard from people who had RDRAMs in their systems. They claim it is unbelievably fast. Of course I do not pay any attention to those claims, since the rest of their system also has top of the line material. I will be curious to see the benchmark tests for the P4s. Seldom Blue
