I guess my assumption was that RMBS memory would supplant the existing memory in (or intended to be in) these devices. No doubt that if certain things work better because of the faster memory (game devices, and work stations are clear beneficiaries) that could expand the markets for those end product and thereby the RMBS market.

uncle,

Your points this morning about memory size also made me realize that the cache on the average processor today (at 256K) is 4X larger than the entire amount of system memory in the first 64K machines. I wonder if anyone at that time predicted that eventually all of the memory would be embedded on the chip. If they did, it certainly hasn't hurt the external memory market either.

Dave
