Salesmen do lie.  That's what the word sales are derived from the latin word,
slander.  Yes, RDRam is much worse than SDRam, it's not much faster than SDRAM.
The salesman just want to make his bonus from sales.  So he will say anything to
get a sale.  You should perhaps read the technical reviews about RDRAM from
tomshardware or anandtech website.  They both give thumbs down for this RDRAM.
