<<Rambus is one gigantic crock anyway. Their patents are considered nothing more than blackmail by anyone with even half a clue, basically copied from a conference and then submitted to the patent office in violation of the conference rules. A giant company of leeches, and nothing more. And everyone KNOWS that rambus pays off big customers with fat juicy warrants of Rambus stock. Due to an absurd accounting rule in the US, this allows rambus to literally give away hundreds of millions of dollars to entice companies to "license" their patents. None of those hundreds of millions in Rambus stock given away shows up on the bottom line. Not a single cent. The only place it shows up is in existing shareholder dilution, but who cares about that anymore anyway? Rambus does this because Rambus executives knows one thing- they can retire fat and rich by selling Rambus stock, but they'll never retire fat and rich by selling their pathetic "product.">> ROTFLMAO!!! I don't even know where to begin with this work of art. Lets try G-A-A-P... Then there's Patent-Filing-Dates... Then there's public records... LOL.
