it's next generation and it's only 20-25% faster than current XPs?

i assume this thing will be scaling massive tho...i hope.

dual ddr is nice. very nice. i wonder what the performance difference would be. too bad they're only talking pc2700 but since theres no standard beyond that... i wonder how easy it is to pump up the ddr Hz?
