dick..

By settling with Hitachi they now knew they would be able to open their wallets and pay Rambus a huge settlement fee plus royalties. How wonderful!

Gee dick - I didn't think the details of the settlement were public - maybe you can post them here for us to read since you suggest you know them...

silly dick, this is a game of business... ya see dick, in business rmbs might give Hitachi a chunk of stock so Hitachi will settle and agree to pay royalities... And the stock might be worth way more than the fees Hitachi needs to pay... ya see dick, that's the way business is done... Look at TERN's sales agreements for simialr business deals dick...

gee dick, I didn't know you were so wet behind the ears. I should get you a towel...

PS. Pluvia, let me know when you have another shorting scam in motion so I can play the game against you. Playing against your logic I'll become a very, very wealthy man.

PS dick.... we've never lost a battle with ANY company we've accused of fraud... In fact we've scored KO's in all but 2 cases... dick... and them thar 2 companies are headed for the canvas as we speak... dick...

But I'm sure when you're on the opposite side of our trades that will change... dick

Has Rambus "warned" that there would be a large one time gain this quarter from the Hitachi settlement?

No.

Has Rambus warned that there would be large legal fees from the Infineon lawsuit that wouldn't be offset by additional current revenues?

Yes.

Every indication is that the Hitachi settlement was for a trivial amount and that the Infineon suit will be long, expensive, and, in the end, not very lucrative.
