Interesting from the Yahoos:Indeed, while Intel continues to pad its roadmap with chipsets that support DDR, the MPU maker isn't overly excited about the readiness of DDR333 either. “We're convinced that DDR333 isn't ready yet,” MacWilliams told EBN. “We want to make sure that modules, chipsets, and motherboards with the new memory have all been validated and work together. Until you go through all these steps, a new technology is not ready for the market.” MacWilliams added that DDR-II at 400MHz “will be an even bigger challenge.” “Intel has started its own preliminary lab work looking at DDR-II and will support JEDEC in developing the industry standard,” he said. “Vendors should have their first compliant engineering samples by the end of 2003, when we can begin the validation process.” JFD

RE:"Jim: You are as wrong about this as you were about inflation being a threat and AG doing the right thing in raising rates that brought our economy to a screaming halt" I don't think I was wrong about it at all... Infaltion was occuring....still is... Just check the housing market. What really threw a wrench in things is the tax break Real Estate got. Throw that in with AG having to lower rates and you see why housing really took off. So the part of the economy went to the moon while another part had it's bubble burst. Everything comes home to roost eventually... RE:"Every chipset that will properly support 2ghz and above will be the new set from RMBS. Better performance at the same cost. INTC should have stayed the course but hey no one is perfect but now they have a great technology to work with. P3 in Xeon will use the SDRAm but from now on out it will be RDRAM. See Dell's latest 8200 offering. JFD" What new set from Rambus? I see no P4s with Rambus at retail shelves, only DDR and some SDRAM... Sounds like your long Rambus.... Jim
