Re: 'If they dominate then why build a MTH? Timna scraped because they couldn't get MTH to work." You are confused. The MTH was an interface chip designed to allow RDRAM controllers to work with cheaper SDRAM memory - for COST REDUCTION - not for performance - and NOT FOR RAMBUS MEMORY - A FACT THAT YOU CANNOT SEEM TO GRASP . The MTH was buggy and Intel could never get it to work. Ergo, there was no path to cost reduction when an DRDRAM chip set/controller was used - and THIS KILLED TIMNA.
