You are a silly disingenuous guy!

The price of RDRAM is relatively high because Sansung does not have a lot of competition yet. Only NEC is providing competition currently. Samsung is making a lot of money off of RDRAM.

Re: "And secondly, just when are Infineon and Micron going to start ramping up that RDRAM production again? Around April 2000 or so?"

I suspect that neither Micron nor Infineon will ever produce RDRAM. They have not made the capital investments necessary to be competitive producers and they will not be able to compete now or in the future.

Micron is likely to be out of the DRAM business in a few years. Infineon wants to get out of the dram business altogether.

And what do you (disingenous one) mean "ramping up that RDRAM production again?" Neither company has produced squat in the RDRAM market ever.

Save us your incessant BS---BILOW.

Nice example Bilow, from one of your links "The Samsung M464S1724CT1 consists of eight CMOS 8M x 16 bit with 4banks"

I spose to anybody not clicking on the links, your point was made. OK, you don't need 8 chips to make a DIMM, but most DIMMS have 8 and many have more. The point of that March post stands i.e. that the ratio of chips to modules for SDRAM is greater than for RDRAM. Nice try to twist facts again.

Edit - I was curious so looked at more of those links that were examples of DIMMs not having 8 chips on them and guess what I found? Along with a few examples of datasheets not being available for that product. Your rate of BS generation seems to be greater than your quality control. You are getting sloppy Bilow and it doesn't take much effort to pick up on your inconsistencies.
