Re: Well Said! Rambus forever !!!

Thanks for another good example of why Intel is not a harmful monopoly. If they were, then consumers would be stuck using all the standards that Intel has imposed, beneficial or not. As it is, Intel has made many attempts at standards - some of them successful, and others not.


Just because even they can't cram EVERY piece of crap down the market's throat doesn't mean they aren't a harmful monopoly. Just that they're capable of making mistakes so large that no amount of subsidizing or market clout can overcome them.

That should go to show that the industry ultimately decides which of Intel's technologies will succeed, and which will fail. That's beneficial for the consumer.

Suuuuuure. Your pitch is now that Intel is powerless to influence "the industry?" They can't push standards? I thought that that's been your very thesis for your last few posts... That what the market needs is a good monopoly to show them what direction to march in, what standards to follow, because the rabble sure aren't capable of doing so...

Make up your mind!
