>>If Intel motherboards and chip sets were only to support Rambus, or if Intel were to
offset the additional cost of the memory chips by discounting the combination of
motherboards, chip sets and processors, then Rambus parts would be used to some
degree.<<

the asps of computers would increase. this is akin to cutting off your nose to spite your face.

>> The economics are different for RMBS and the actual memory chip producers. It
is easy to imagine large (for RMBS) RMBS revenues and low capital costs at the
same time that the memory chip producers are bleeding red ink.<<
