Carl, re: What Samsung is talking about is itself producing total RDRAM amounting to 300 million x 15% = 45 million chips.

I don't think that's correct. The quote states "out of a total 300 million devices shipped by the market"

Bob Eminian, vice president of marketing for Samsung Semiconductor, said he expected Direct RDRAM to comprise about 15% of Samsung's DRAM unit shipments next year -- out of a total 300 million devices shipped by the market.

My interpretation is Samsung believes 300 million RDRAM's will ship next year. Using your number of ~4B DRAM's, that's about 7.5%. (I think total DRAM's are lower, though).

At any rate, that's a far cry from the 40% of total DRAM for next year that Samsung forecast in June.

Samsung claimed that Direct RDRAMs will exceed 40% of its total DRAM shipments by the end of 2001.
