Hi NightOwl; That's a hard post to follow...

But if Rambus wasn't around, the industry would have built DDR as a niche memory for the graphics guys a year or so before they did. The overall effect of Rambus was to slow the industry down, up to now.

The overall effect in the future will be to speed the industry up, but only because Rambus forced the purchase of a lot of expensive test equipment and also forced improvements in manufacturing controls. Now those improvements will pave the easy way for DDR to ramp its clock rather quickly.
