RE:"The arrangement was that IBM would keep half the wafers. Unfortunately, IBM decided to go into a price war with Cyrix and put them out of business. They showed ethics which made Rambus look like a bright beacon."

IBM would probably tell you the chips weren't selling and they had to dump them to cover costs.
At any rate, it was a bad agreement.

As far as TWY, you have said worse. Cut the guy some slack. He's an IBMer so maybe he takes it a little personal.
