Aside from the allegedly impending Acer vaporware, there was a somewhat more concrete "new" Rambus design mentioned in the digitimes article: digitimes.com

According to Intel’s roadmap, besides the current 850 chipset, which supports RDRAM, Intel is planning to introduce another RDRAM chipset codenamed “Tulloch” in the middle of 2002. Unlike the 850 chipset, which adopts a dual-channel architecture, the upcoming Tulloch has a single-channel design. Tulloch also has a much improved circuit layout, based on a four-layer PCB (printed circuit board) design, cutting down production costs.

Cool, looks like an 820 redux for the P4. But where 1 rdram channel should have been adequate for the Piii, for the P4? I guess Intel feels lucky or something.

Jonh, "new RDRAM designs are being done"
The article does not say anything about design, John.
What they do is a marketing research by now.
Du you know what kind of result they will get?

john, i think that is picking at nats. bilow's message is that the mass majority of next generation designs or not for rmbs and i think the evidence proves him right. assuming all folks in any group has common sense is a bit foolish, imho.
