Rambus Dn 4% On News Story That Intel
Won't Use its Pdt

NEW YORK -- Shares of Rambus Inc. (RMBS) slipped 5% Friday after
Electronic News Online said that Intel Corp. (INTC) won't use the
company's memory standard in most chips for its "mainstream PC market."

Citing "confidential documents," Electronic News Online said Intel's
desktop roadmap update indicates Rambus' DRAM will only be used in
Intel's high-end desktop market.

But Intel spokesman Michael Sullivan said Electronic News is writing
about "very old" information. "I think it was a situation where the reporter
thought it was new information," he said.

The chipset that will accompany the Pentium 4 processors coming first will
only have Rambus' DRAM memory, he said. Later in the Pentium 4
product life cycle, Intel will support SDRAM memory, which Rambus
doesn't offer, Sullivan added.

Intel announced plans to launch two chipsets for the Pentium 4 in late July.

Rambus shares recently traded at $66.50, down $3.50, or 5%, on volume
of 5.8 million, compared with a daily average of 14.2 million.
