Why does it seem there are no chipsets or motherboard for AMD socketA that support a 1 gig sdramm chip? Will DDR memory chips be available in 1gig form?

I would guess the reason is that the only people who typically need upwards of 2GB of memory (4 x 512) would be servers, and these typically would want more than one processor (which is not yet possible with SocketA). Not much of a demand, so no supply.

Ya, that statement won't sound silly in a year or so :)
