I've been using a Polaroid SS4000 with a wintel platform that has 384 MB of ram. The platform is ~5 years old and I'm thinking of getting something new. I've found the 384 MB of ram to be useable (just) even when working with scans using 16 bits per channel.
In looking at new systems a major difference is whether to go with a system using 1GB of RDRAM memory (400mb/sec front side bus) or one using 1GB of DDR memory (266mb/sec front side bus). From what I've been able to discern RDRAM memory will be faster with large ~100MB files. Is RDRAM a better choice for systems used for scanning and processing large 2d image files? Does anyone have any suggestions for www sites that discuss this issue? Thanks and happy new year, JimD ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe' in the title or body
