Re: "Elmer, I think that you know what I mean by test. It means that a component that passes the test will, with a very high level of probability, work in a system. Virtually all electronic components are tested this way today. However, we are now in the Rambus era ...

Let me just say that I am glad I am not the one who has to guarantee, with a very high level of probability, >99.9%, that RamBus devices meet the specs and will work in systems. EP
