PC, They will not call your stock til perspiration because it is cheaper to play the options. They used to back in the good old days when traders were even more igonorant than they are today, which is hard to imagine.

Who didn't predict Intel having a chipset problem? Just everyone on this thread, with the exception of yourself, every computer rag in the world, and anyone paying attention, predicted it. It is not a hard prediction. Intel has never had any product out on time and ready for prime time, in its history. Earlie and Fleck had it in print earlier than most, but nobody with half a brain thought this dog could hunt.

But the not working stuff is just a copout. The simple fact is, Rambus chips are slower and they cost more. Not a great selling point.

I would rather be lucky than good. I am very blessed to be both. <g>
