KZ,

<Not too sure about 1T sram. Did you mean to say 2T?>

I mean 1T. Check out MoSys home page for details. Apparently there are a lot of other players pushing this concept.

<But the problem is that texture memory is huge. Way too huge for embedded dram and even too huge for non-embedded, dedicated dram in the long run. So sharing the PC main memory for textures seems the only solution ultimately. >

Interesting. Can you elaborate more on this? Where are we today with respect to texture memory needs and how do you see that growing over the next couple of years. What class of PCs/game consoles do you expect this to drive. Any commentary on driving factors and other issues would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Chuck
