Re: it made me want to go to the IBM site and see what they're up to with...

Yep, a broad variety of RDRAM systems have been for sale for a half a year now. And not just from IBM, but from Dell, Compaq, and others. There haven't been any issues of availability of Rambus based systems for many months now.

So why hasn't anyone been buying them?

Hi Dave B; Re IBM and its DDR support... (Sorry for the delay, I've been on vacation. Catching up on my RMBS thread reading is going to be near impossible.)

Still looking into the past, you are avoiding the future. RDRAM is still a tiny percentage of the market and is still priced way, way above the 15% premium that might allow it to survive.

Sure and here it is, but you have to register:
