Dave,

Not for the manufacturers of approximately 50% of the devices in the market.

The Japanese manufacturers who signed some kind of agreement with Rambus did so to avoid the possibility of a USITC political action to block imports. Obviously the decision was made by the memory makers to let an American company test the legal issues (i.e. Micron.)

Hitachi specifically stated in their statement at the time of the agreement that they do not recognize Rambus' claims.

If I design my product (a car, in the last example) such that it uses a product that only you make (the screws, in the last example), then I have to pay you what you ask.

Get serious.
