Well, Ten, perhaps it will make no difference to the RMBS shareholder if DDR prevails in servers... (See Rambus v. Hitachi)

Tench, Re: RDRAM in servers. Interesting. My sense at the meeting was that he was dancing around the answer a bit on this one as well. Not as much as the 820 question, but the answer still seemed a little disjointed, which makes more sense in light of what you said. Let me ask this: If RDRAM was exactly the same cost as SDRAM or DDR DRAM, which would the server vendors prefer? Is it just a cost issue, since you put so much more memory in a server, or are there other reasons for not using it? Are we back to the latency issues, etc. again? Thanks, Dave
