isn't moving to RMBS in the near term. It could be that these companies would have to design a memory controller themselves to move to Rambus instead of relying on Intel. That may not be the best use of their resources in their opinion. TP

rich, could it be that pixelfusion did a successful end run with their new graphics program. i was wondering myself what effect pixelfusion might have on apple's graphics program. i have a very good buddy who owns an advertising agency. he spent $35,000 on apple equipment last year. he owns rmbs stock. he is very interested in rambus and pixelfusion. promised to tell what he finds out. i'll post whatever he says, when he tells me. unclewest

Why is it that SGI, a company with an extremely good tech rep, especially in graphics, isn't moving to RMBS in the near term. How about Apple, another company known for graphics performance who has no current plans to incorporate RMBS in its next generation G4 systems. Could it be that for the near to mid-term RMBS doesn't provide a viable performance gain. Could it be that SGI and Apple are more worried about next quarter than next year? They must spend their money verrrrry carefully and are desperate for a home run--right now!
