CNET's take on the RMBS meeting

Funny it doesn't mention any of the calls for non-cancelables.

"As for future systems, Intel spokesman Howard High said he recognizes that it's tough to convince people to move to Rambus memory.

'It's a chicken-and-egg problem,' High said. Until PC makers buy Rambus in quantity, the memory will be expensive to manufacture. But until PC manufacturers demand lots of Rambus chips, memory makers won't make them in high volumes at low cost.

And Intel is in a somewhat awkward position, since it controls neither the memory suppliers nor the PC makers. All it can do is talk to both sides--and give money to memory makers in the form of hundreds of millions of dollars in equity investments."
