i'll bet rmbs supporter didn't anticipate this. who needs ddr when sdram kicks your butt! ;-)

Hi Jdaasoc; Intel on unbuffered vs registered DDR DIMMs:

DDR - Developing Technology
Intel is fully engaged with the industry to develop DDR memory technology. The Intel DDR 200 spec addendum tightens and clarifies the Joint Electron Device Engineering Council (JEDEC) definitions to ensure that DDR components and dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) will be as robust as possible. Intel is also focusing on motherboard desigsn to ensure that they re robust, cost-effective, and manufacturable.

DDR memory is already a suitable choice for certain applications. Accordingly, Intel is developing a DDR-based server platform using approved DIMMs for release later this year. As the volume production of DDR memory becomes more stable, Intel will expand DDR options for performance and mainstream desktop systems using more cost-effective unbuffered DIMMs. A new chipset that supports DDR memory will be available for Pentium 4 systems in early part of 2002.
