RE: <Capt Rocky, Et all the Rambus longs, Nintendo will NOT be using DRDRAM in its new box. They are using a 1T sram licensed from Mosys. Apparently as fast as SRAm ie 4-5Ns and same density as DRAM. Does this spell a long term problem for DRDRAM long term. Nintendo was first major Rambus OEM and now they are first to dump it. Thoughts, Kash.> That's interesting! Of course, this applies to the new Game Boy which is Nintendo's lowend and not to the N64 replacement with PowerPC (can't remember its name). The Mosys 1T sram is really just embedded dram with a good PR campaign. Was it Bilow that was recently pointing out that embedded dram affects Rambus' potential market because it eats way at the lowend where Rambus would otherwise rule due to granularity. This is a quick proof of that.
