KZNERD, RE Validation procedures. Lends new meaning to the dictum, "Blind leading blind" Still, I cannot believe it happened this way. Intel is not that stupid for this to happen this way. I suspect it is a consistency and buildability problem encountered in volume production of Rambus compliant products. They must have had and tested working products. What if Rambus made 100,000 and found they had 300 that worked and they shipped those to Intel for testing, to pass a milestone, (and to not crater the stock), trusting to technical solutions coming downstream?. It is obvious that Intel will have to do a detailed study of what is really going on and then try to solve the problems as Intel sees them. Rambus work and their "word" will no longer suffice. Rambus must 'open the kimono' for a detailed inspection. Intel may not like what they find. Bill
