Hi Jdaasoc; Re: "The 4Bank Rambus chips are 3 percent smaller than SDRAM chips, making them 10 percent cheaper than their DDR counterparts when mass produced, suggesting a faster penetration in the market, Samsung said."

What Samsung is doing here is comparing the size of an RDRAM chip to an SDRAM chip, but they're giving the RDRAM chip the advantage of a smaller feature size. Go back and read the article very carefully.

In other words, it's another apples to oranges comparison.

P.S. My keyboard is still fine, thanks for worrying.

Hi John, could you have a look at the numbers Carl and I have been sharing, see post #77085.

Also I have been making a list (on TMF) of machines using DDR, which I am trying to make more complete. The thing that particularly interested me in the searching (at which I am of course not as good as Carl<gg>) was the Fujitsu siemens workstation with a Pentium III and DDR. So that mobo may have migrated to other machines as well, are you aware of any servers/workstations with DDR?

The famous Itanium (Silicon Graphics) server has sdram, even PC100, I believe like the cheapest of the cheapest.

Here is my list:
