Hi Jdaasoc; Re: "RIMMs don't require "buffer" popcorn only registered DRAM do." RIMMs require heat "spreaders", which are close enough to popcorn for our purposes.

I would also expect RDRAM prices to continue dropping, along with DDR, and less with SDRAM, but RDRAM has manufacturing issues that will force the memory makers to switch RDRAM lines off before they switch off the SDRAM lines.

The memory makers have a history of treating their RDRAM production (as well as other niche memories like SGRAM) on a produce only for firm order basis, so the prices aren't likely to go as low, I'm guessing. We'll see soon enough.
