RE:"The strength of P4 is with DRAM bandwidth limited applications. Single data rate SDRAM will not perform well on those applications.

Yes...

RE:"On the other hand, P4 w/ 2 DDR busses will meet or beat dual channel P4/RDRAM across the spectrum of apps"

Yes...

Jim

PS...That's coming from someone who knows little about DRAM...but it isn't that hard to figure out.
If DDR is cheaper than Rambus and it performs better...well you know the story. Probably still some applications for Rambus so they will sell a few sticks...
