Ali, ted, re:<Slowly, the toll of the Intel-Rambus fiasco is becoming clear. Executives in the computer-memory industry told TheStreet.com they now believe the Camino problem is so intractable that Rambus technology may never work, at least not in any way that would make Rambus chips marketable or profitable.> thestreet.com Can I infer from this that the extreme limitations on the length of the traces (which killed the Camino 3-slot motherboards) makes RAMBUST a non-solution for multiprocessor motherboards? Or is the solution to the Camino problem a lot more complex than reducing the trace lenghts and limiting the number of slots to 2? BTW, Ali, great call in techstocks.com And from what you say, as they try to increase the clock frequency of RDRAM, the problem will get proportionally worse. ("limiting to 1/8 the wavelength of the clock frequency") Petz
