Ian,

Re:" "a chipset by the first half of next year" is no threat to Rambus. I think this is competitive marketing by Intel to fight off VIA. "An Intel fellow" as the source, no official press release, all sounds easy for Intel to deny later. "

As a competitive response to VIA this makes NO sense at all.

Its pretty clear that pressure for PC133 is coming from MB guys and OEMs and the DRAM guys as well - a pretty potent force if you ask me.

I am just very surprised that they did not have a PC133 back up chip set in the backroom is all.

As far as Rambus success - it will be performance driven. If it aids end user performance - it will succeed. If it doesn't -it will die as desktop memory-clearly it will succeed in gaming and video markets.

Regards,

Kash
