""But why are you guys worried about this, Rambus will collect royalties on DDR, won't they?""

I'm worried 'cause its hard to collect on a technology that doesn't work, is too little, too late, and represents a dramatic re-design for the systems builders. At least an RDRAM license gives you bundled engineering services to subsidize all of that the engineering work.

And besides, WHERE is the common gerber?

Can't collect on that crap.
