Hi all; The combination of Intel begging the memory makers for more RDRAM chips on the eve of the DDR summit just calls for poetry:

The Rambus consortium did try
to earn itself royalties high,
and by market power
make the industry cower,
but Micron said "Eat scrap, and die!"

"Solve your own problems, not mine.
Our industry, it does just fine.
We'll make our own parts,
choose our own wafer starts,
and let Rambus die on the vine."


Twas then that Intel was to hear,
That their yearly debacle was near.
And the DDR summit
caused their stomachs to plummet,
and their steppers to tremble with fear.

Intel asked for a meeting to talk,
but the memory people did balk,
cause the best of their crew
worked on DDR-2,
so they told Intel to go walk.

Then RDRAM knew it had lost
in its battle to reduce its cost,
and the memory makers
and other chip bakers
were simply too big to be bossed.

-- Carl
