Electronic News on RMBS <Intel's Rambus Forum gives memory vendors creative control of RDRAM Palm Springs, Calif.--A brewing controversy over next-generation memory standards has forced Intel Corp. to put control of the specifications and device configuration for direct Rambus DRAMs (RDRAMs) back into the hands of the DRAM vendors and out of the control of RDRAM creator Rambus Inc.> Full article electronicnews.com And also, <The return of the control of memory market to its traditional owners means the outlook for RDRAM looks quite a bit different. Change in the DRAM market is likely to be much more gradual than Rambus' forecasts have indicated, in keeping with the historical pace of development for memory technology. Look for PC-133 to emerge as the next volume leader in the DRAM market. Then look for 266MHz Double Data Rate DRAM (DDR DRAM) to succeed PC-133. The next generation will be DDR SDRAM at 400MHz. By this time, it will be the year 2002 or later. > Full article electronicnews.com

Wayne, sounds like a winning trip to me. I always go for value, especially at Keeneland where all horses are shippers and some have had recent poor form, but have a liking for the surface. Track bias almost always plays a greater role there than at most tracks, and is usually easy to spot early in the meet. I have knowledgeable friends who will fill me in on the bias. Since there are lots of infrequent track goers on hand, prices (apart from 2-yr old races) are generally good. Plus, I always throw out Pat Day, who is a huge drag on the tote board. It's a great track and one that is generally friendly to handicappers looking for value.
