Hi pompsander; RMBS has a few good months of trading left in it. I never, ever, ever said that RMBS was dead, dead, dead. On the other hand, I have repeatedly said that RDRAM, is dead, dead, dead, ever since design engineers began avoiding it in October/November of '99.
To make it clear, RMBS is a stock traded on the Nasdaq. RDRAM is a memory technology. I'm usually pretty careful about using the right term to describe precisely what I intend. It is possible that I have slipped and used one when I meant the other, but I doubt that you will ever find a post of mine where I said that "RMBS" is dead, dead, dead.
Example post from December 1999:
This is exactly what I have been saying for the past month. Direct Rambus DRAM is dead, dead, dead.
I am not saying that there will be no shipments of product containing it. What I am saying is that new design wins are not happening. I am not saying that the manufacturers have stopped pushing the technology, only that the design engineers are not seriously considering it anymore.
