(1) Think of dram as a wagon.
(2) Think of the processor as a horse.
(3) Now think of a horse and wagon
(4) As horses get faster then need better wagons.
(5) Processors have been 286, 386,486,P and now PII
(6) Dram have been FPM,EDO,SDRAM
(7) PII has a 440LX mother board that uses SDRAM..that's it !
(8) There are 3 new types of Dram for the 100MHz mother
board speed.....but that is the future.
(9) I get the FPM,EDO and SDRAM prices every day in the
San Jose Mercury Newspaper add from Hi-Tech
(10) Hope that helps you and any others.

PS: My FREE email memebers just got a chart where I have just merged
EDO DRAM into SDRAM because Micron will be at 100% SDRAM by the
end of 1998......don't know what TXN dram will be at ????

Irene,

Before year end I'm going to have to buy TXN. If what I've
heared about the potential for DSP is true, I have no choice
but to buy. I'm certainly not going to wait for the analysts.
I don't claim to be an expert, but most of the analysts earn
over six figures. It doesn't sound like they're worth it to me.

Thanks for your commentary.

John
