<< Although PC makers set prices for their systems, Intel has some say in the pricing on initial Pentium 4 systems. The company is offering a $70 subsidy for the RDRAM that goes into each Pentium 4-based computer. The company's goal is to lessen the price of RDRAM memory, lest it stand in the way of adoption of its new flagship chip. >>

Wow UIntel giving 70 bucks for RDRAM LOL!

Too bad you have to buy 2 sticks of RDRAM for each P4 system.

Talk about a scam.
