It looks like the 'Hail Mary' pass that is DDRII may be serial and not parallel:

What I would like to get cleared up, is if RDRAM is so bad and “inferior”, then why is it that DDR-II is headed on the same path (Serial). I remember someone asking you this before OngEng, and you responded by saying that if that was/is the case then DDR-II is dead, or something to that extent...

This means that the 'peak latency issue' allegedly hampering RDRAM will no longer exist as a differentiator when (if EVER) DDRII comes out.

It's fun doing some DD on the holidays...the AMDroids look sillier every day...LOL
