Jim,

Micron, Via and AMD hoped to use DDR along with Athlon processors to wrest control of the pC market from Intel. Little did they know that their chief arms supplier is this war against Intel was RAMBUS which holds the patents on DDR.

Rambus may or may not have patents which are applicable to some features of DDR memory. To suggest that "RAMBUS holds the patents on DDR" is a rather huge and imaginative stretch.

If anything, this agreement strengthens the position of DDR. Rambus doesn't have to push their expensive memory solution anymore.
