I know at least a couple of manuf. made the high speed tester investment end of 96 that can test PC100 now without additional investment. Unfortunately, Micron waited a bit late and had some tester limitations here over the past 6 months on 66Mhz. They should be ok or at least by May, according to one of Montgomery's reports. The real problem, I think, and thats without doing my homework, 1) How tough are the tester requirements to test RDRAM components and additionally, 2)testing RDRAM RIM modules at speed. Finally, 3) Can a tester today test RDRAM at speed? (Not too easy at 1.6G per sec) If anyone out there is a tester wiz, speak up so I dont have to go research this. Otherwise, if anyone is interested, I will find out and let you know. The reason for the question you brought up the tester issue, I am more concerned about the next generation, I think PC100 is pretty well ironed out now especially after Intel relaxed the spec to caslatency3 instead of the faster caslatency2 spec. Also Intel has made the final spin on the chip set, and most Manuf are about to start production. MU stock price tomorrow: ANY PREDICTIONS TOMORROW?? LARRY, ( I know it will go up and down). David, you always have a keen sense? I would love to see a small run up and then signal a fall back, as you know I like those puts. Good Trading.
