Zeev, some IP questions.
While Intel has a Rambus contractual incentive to sell the i820/840 chip sets, do they also pay royalties on these?
If Rambus is successful in the SDRAM/DDRDRAM IP wars, can they differentiate the market by "side of the bus?" Is it possible to create Agreements for chipset makers that are considerably more favorable than for memory chip makers? Considering chip sets sell in excess of 100 million units/year, this may be a multi billion dollar business in itself, with VIA claiming they will capture 50% share. Can someone with similar market share insist on similar MFC terms and conditions? (Seem's this could be a very sensitive issue from a number of standpoints).
TIA and JMHO's <g>
