Hey Cal, you show me where I said that XDR was not faster than DDR?

The time it takes for any transfer is shorter for XRD, clear.

I was showing, however, that for normal PC work, which involves a lot of short bursts of bytes (I was coming to that but wanted to check in with you on the table first, which from your answer I now know to be correct:), the advantage for XDR dimishes quite a bit.

You need long bursts of data (graphics?) to justify the extra cost (which there will be, no doubt)

Cheers
Cor

PS will be back, if not this year, then the next.....
