but this is what they were talking about doing - to compete on a DDR2
standpoint, no?  I don't remember them saying they were going Socket-939 -
as that's not where they need the competitive price?

AND...theBS' recommendations are?  The Anandtech article had some
recommendations on 'value' DDR2 ram that performed pretty darn close to
the uber-expensive (it was 4-4-4 verses 4-4-3 if I remember right).
