Daniel,No, mostly I come here to get sanctimonious lectures. Scumbria, I don't read this thread much, but I'm somewhat fascinated by all the flacks who think that anybody who says anything negative about Rambus the technology is just an investor in somebody that Rambus is trying to shake down. There are a lot of geeks around who just think it's really stupid to pay 5x as much for memory with no perceivable performance gain. Then there's the ever pleasant habit of the Rambus types always emulating the mother company in threatening legal action against anybody who says anything bad about Rambus. Feh. It's one thing when Intel sends out the legal dogs of war, at least they got good engineering (aside from the fiasco of their various Rambus-enabled chipsets) , and actually build stuff themselves. Rambus thinks they're going to take over the world with bogus patents, well, maybe.You guys are nuts. isn't it required to be obnoxious on this board? Isn't that the Rambus way? AMD has been a pretty good investment for the past month, though. 50 posts on the AMD thread in the past month is pretty wimpy compared to your 50 posts here in the past 3-4 days, eh? Sorry that I can't claim to match your "productivity". Somehow, though, I very much doubt Rambus would have the nerve to try and pull this crap without Intel muscle behind them. It would sure be nice to see them both go down together on this one. I feel your pain, though.
