Hi jim kelley; You wrote: "It appears to be easier to engineer RDRAM than it is to engineer DDR. RDRAM took about 4 years (1991-1995) to deliver while DDR has been in development since 1996 and is still not launched (5 years)." Obviously you are using different standards in your comparison between RDRAM and DDR. If you mean to compare time to launch in PCs, then Rambus is way late as RDRAM didn't launch in PCs until 1999, or 8 years. If you mean as a memory, then DDR already launched, about a year ago, or 1996-1999 which is 3 years. These sorts of comparisons don't matter anyway, but for you to make such obvious mistakes is amazing. -- Carl
