Re: You're falling back into the same trap...

Dave, Intel SUED via for offering PC133.

Intel sued to try to block more cost-effective, higher performing alternatives from being made available to us users.

You keep forgetting that in desperation, Intel SUED to try to block alternatives to Rambus.

With a Billion in direct investments, another Billion or so in sunk development costs, and their whole roadmap at stake, it's hard to blame them for trying to stave off the higher performing lower cost alternatives that showed up after they had already made their decision.

But they didn't just leave this up to the market.
