Hmm, let's see......

1. Bilow: RDRAM will never come within 36% of the cost of DDR.

2. Samsung's Hughes said that the prices for RDRAM will be dropping significantly throughout the rest of the year. "By the end of 2001, there will be no price differential between RDRAM and DDR DRAM," he said. "We are really interested in moving both technologies into the mainstream." At the moment he said that Samsung is shipping between five and 10 times as many RDRAM chips as DDR DRAMs, although that figure fluctuates monthly.

Now, which of these two persons is more likely in the know.....

I bet on Bilow, especially given his extensive track record.

Carl,

<geheime Meldung für kommandant karl>

I'm eager to spend an extra 309% for lower performance on my PIII system. Please stop your whining.

It is pretty clear that the Nazi's have brainwashed all the engineers, in part of a grand scheme for the Motherland to regain control the world. Even money that judge (and you) are eventually tried for war crimes.
