<It is fine to adopt marketing bullets, as long as you make intelligent technological choices at the same time. For example- support DRDRAM, but use SDRAM as your mainstream solution.> Scumbria, no wonder Paul calls you Slick. For AMD, it's all part of an "intelligent technological choice." But for Intel, it's a waste of money, more hype, and little benefit. If this were related to Washington, perhaps you'll argue that AMD has the "bipartisan" solution, and Intel is just playing "partisan politics." So tell me, what is different between AMD's approach and Intel's approach? Why in the world would AMD even bother to divert precious resources into RDRAM support if it's just a "marketing bullet"?
