Yes, Rambus has figured out how to support Chip Kill. But it won't be supported until the 256 Mbit generation which won't become the price leader for ... ? a couple years?

But just having the roadmap may start breaking down the RAS resistance to Rambus. (I really glad that I've become a rambus investor!)
