Re: Strange I've asked "what antitrust?" and nobody want's to answer the question. I even provided a legal site for antitrust matters, but still no reply. Richard, This is my best guess. Rambus is licensing DRDRAM for about 1-2%. Rambus is trying to license DDR for a higher amount, even though it owns less of a percentage of the total architecture. This violates antitrust laws. For example, if they own 100% of DRDRAM and license at 2% and they own 20% of DDR, they should license at .4%. Of course this is a simplified example, but you get the point of where my best guess of where Micron is coming from. chic
