Dan: The rambus based P4 has problems with all non-DMA PCI cards (which is a huge number from a myriad of manufacturers). What is it about Rambus that makes PCI devices fail? Where the hell you been for last 2 years. Intel recent chipsets including those that support SDRAM do not support PCI addin card like you describe: - PCI video cards. I personally have experience with a Jerimino PCI dual monitor card that worked fine on BX motherboard but fails about 3 times a day not only on 820 chipset with RDRAM but with a 815e SDRAM chipset as well. - Most legacy SCSI RAID cards from Adaptec don't work on 820,815e and 840 and 850 chipsets to boot because of the PCI problems you report about. PCI cards that don't work on INtel platforms are a function of Intel chipset designs not RDRAM as memory type. If you think that VIA or ALI will do a better job at the high end of the computing market then Intel, you are dreaming. On the court issues, let the judges decide on estoppel issues. Regarding patent validity, Zeev has pointed out the salient issues including the European filings in 1990 which cover ther whole spectre of continuation patents in the US. Last but not least I do not give recommendations on movement of RMBS stock prices. john
