richard, Don certainly has changed his tune since he got caught in a long position as the price ran up and then he decided to hold on for the ride, wild though it may be. So now we get news instead of pessimistic negativity. I do not think such a turn of events is in the offing for Carl. Barry

Dick, I was doing one of my occasional usenet perusals and came on another hilarious post by your alter ego, John Corse. What a guy, I had to share with you. Edited slightly for SI standards. B* s*. LMAO. What a joke. Listen to what you are saying. "If you want to compare SDRAM vs. RDRAM, you have to do your best to keep everything as consistant as possible, which in this case means changing ONLY the motherboard and processor." WRONG. If you want to compare memory, you keep EVERYTHING constand and change only memory. Different motherboards, different drivers, different FSBs as in the case of Athlon, and different CPUs is useless. The only fair benchmark in comparing memory is on ONE 820 or 840 mobo with RDRAM or with a riser and SDRAM. Everything else other than that comparison adds huge biases that is not a true memory test. Only with a single motherboard same drivers same cpu and ONLY different memory can you say that you have a true test. And guess what? In such a comparison, even with a SDRAM friendly FSB (133MHz) RDRAM kills SDRAM x51.deja.com[ST_rn=ap]/threadmsg_ct.xp?AN=666402450.1&mhitnum=0&CONTEXT=968361991.974127114 In case you need interpretation of that bit of extreme Rambogosity, Corse is claiming the only "fair" way to compare RDRAM with SDRAM is to slap SDRAM + Intel's (mercifully no longer available) MTH on an RDRAM mobo. Maybe you could get Corse one of those free SI memberships? He'd certainly fit right in here.

Richard> Don Green is not the Don Green of yesteryear!<G> Wrong again... I haven't changed, I still think Rambus is extremely overvalued and will never live up to most longterm investors expectations. But then again I think the shorts and bashers are just as wrong. I still think Rambus is a better trading stock than it ever was as an investment. But with that said I am still long and have been for almost a year now, with many regrets.. Hint! The only thing that has changed is, I let others argue with you, I just smile! Coach Don
