No, that is a old wives tale.
In the original version of W95, there was talk that it couldn't cache
more than 64MB of RAM. I'm not even sure if that was true.

I don't know if W98 could even use 512MB of RAM.
I know it is supported, but I dont see it using it.
However he also stated that he is dual booting to W2K.

Did anyone read what OS he is running? Win98, if that's all you are
going to run you should just stick with the current machine. There is
NO SMP support in 98, and the P4 extentions won't be taken advantage of
with 98.

RE: RDRAM.
That is about to change. I believe VIA just released a chipset for the
P4 that supports DDR instead. However, there will be a lag before
motherboards with this chipset start shipping.

I am not familiar with the performance boost with a P4, but you should
consider the cost involve.
RDRAM is expensive and it's the only memory supported in P4.

Hi all,
I need you advice,
I am running Windows 98 on a Pentium2 - 350 with 512 meg.
I am thinking of replacing that PC for either a Pentium3 Dual 1000 with
512 meg or a Pentium4 1.8 with 512 meg running Windows 2000 Pro.
If I don't run any games on that PC, but run multi boot OS, including
W2K server and SQL 2000.
My main use for that PC is Email, Internet, Office softwares, Utilities,
and to test Server software.
For that use, would you recommand a P3-dual 1000 or a P4 1.8
Thanks in advance
