Well would you look at that, it looks like Intel is caving a bit on the whole Rambus memory thing they were trying to push out. According to ZDNet Intel will make a public announcement today that they plan to support SDRAM with the Pentium4.

Intel officials feel that Rambus direct RAM (RDRAM) will continue to be the memory of choice for the performance desktop. (ed: uhuh..)However, they acknowledge a need for a memory technology that will allow PC makers to deliver Pentium 4 systems at lower, "mainstream" prices. RDRAM continues to command a hefty premium over SDRAM.
