I have to agree with the others. Why post bull? There was never any bid at 89+ anywhere, at any time (unless you were looking a week ago or something). Get with the program. People do'nt want crap posted anymore.

Ian, Maybe it was this... :-) I don't think so. something must be out: bid 89 11/16 was posted on the morning of the 15th when the Rambus price had just jumped up from Friday's close of 87 1/4. Did you notice that Intel are now publicly talking about 1200MHz clock speed Rambus? So a successor to the 840 chipset with two Rambus channels could have a peak data transfer rate of 9.6 Gbyte/s. Or a Timna like device with one Rambus channel could have a peak data transfer rate of 4.8 Gbyte/s. Not bad for a low-end system. What technological innovations do you think that DDR will use to match this kind of performance without violating the Rambus patents? You mentioned in another posting that Rambus had many deficiencies and limitations. Would you be kind enough to list them, preferably in comparison with competing technologies? I am sure you must have such a list to hand, so it should really be very little trouble for you. John
