What do you think?
I honestly don't think AMD will have anything in the near future to challenge Skulltrail.

Hey guys new around here. This is a great article. More thorough than the other reviews I have been reading about this platform. There is one huge downfall :

FB-DIMM is dead, RDDR3 is new king

FB-DIMM development stops, Registered ECC DDR3 is the way forward

By Theo Valich: Wednesday, 26 September 2007, 4:17 PM

EVEN THOUGH SKULLTRAIL is yet to surface, FB-DIMM development has drawn to a close. We have talked to several Dramurai and developers of server memories, and they had told us that FB-DIMM is as dead as a turkey preparing for Thanksgiving Dinner.
This has me worried if I where think about dropping $5,000 into a system and knowing fb-dimm is drawing to a close. I would much rather wait on a system that I could replace my old ram if it where to die on me. Which lately has been happening to quite a few folks. Or am I not interpreting this correctly? One hell of a article and rig though!
