I don't know about BS detectors, but Rambus seems to have plenty too many BS generators around. On "stealing" Rambus IP, that's for the courts to decide, not the local BS generators. This ain't Intel strongarming some little company here, though. The opposition has money to spend on lawyers, too. As for taking Intel down a notch, Rambus seems to be doing way more than its part there, if Intel had just upgraded the BX to PC133 instead of trying to force Rambus down everybody's throats, they'd be looking a lot better right now. Instead, you can have your 820/840 board with really expensive DRDRAM or with a really sucky translator hub. I'm sure Intel is proud and happy to be offering that choice. Giving the customers what they want, and all that. You guys want everybody to pay 5x as much for their computer memory, that's your business. It's just entertainment to me.
