What's your point? That explains some of the problem. Why do you respond to posts if you don't know what the point is? Follow the conversation back to get the point. On second thought, I'll make it easy. The fact that one piss-ant company is making DDR machines is not an indication that the DDR launch has been successful or smooth. In fact, so far, the DDR launch is a bust. Maybe in the future they'll do better. But all the promises you guys made about DDR systems has so far resulted in delivery of systems by one company that currently sits in 11th place in market share. By any objective measurement, the use of DDR for main memory in systems is a failure. Wasn't October 30th of last year Carl's "Here Comes DDR" day? Or sometime around then. Well? Is this it? MUEI shipping DDR systems, and a bunch of home-brew kit manufacturers? That's it? If RDRAM had rolled out like this, you guys would've been rightfully laughing your butts off. You would have posted 400 times a day how dead RDRAM was. Instead, even RDRAM had many more systems shipping on day 1, and even more available 3 months later. And look at the web sites from all the major players now. Almost half the desktop and workstation systems (or 54.3957937%, for Carl) are RDRAM systems. Please feel free to show me something besides a MUEI system from any major vendor running DDR. Please! It's been three months, and all you have is one piddling little vendor. As the recent post indicated, even Garber is starting to back off of the "DDR Success Schedule". Where's any indication whatsoever that "DDR is coming", other than the same old tired promises we've heard for over a year? The truth is, you don't have it. Dave
