ENews on RMBS (Don't know if this has been posted) Info for the thread. <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. electronicnews.com

> That's what Rambus is. But at least on Christmas morning everyone gets to see what the gift is -- there's no more guessing, there's now the greater expectation of getting to play with the toy. Dave, remember as a kid counting down each day waiting for Xmas to come, hoping for that special gift ( Red Rider BB gun ) or Rambus!.. But, THEN a few days after Xmas you became bored with that gift and maybe even wondered why you were getting so excited a few weeks ago! "Be careful you might shoot your eye out!" Regards Jack Frost!
