Jdaasoc: I'm normally just a lurker in this thread, since I have no wish being just a hardware geek with no stock owned in any companies to normally get involved in the religious conflict between supporters and opponents of RMBS.. but with regards to your view that the legal bloodshed may be over soon.. at least 1 hardware site with sources disagrees with you. Heres a snippet: "Micron filed a U.S. lawsuit at the end of August, charging Rambus with anti-competitive practices and alleging that the patents claimed by Rambus are invalid and unenforcable. This was quickly followed up with a similar suit filed by Hyundai. This week, Rambus filed suits against Micron and Hyundai in Europe, apparently hoping to either tackle Micron outside of their 'home court', or possibly to take advantage of more stringent patent laws in Europe. Though normally these issues rarely ever actually go to court, some sources familiar with Micron have indicated this one will have to be resolved in front of a judge. Apparently Micron views this as an issue based upon principles, and if history is any indication, they are not reluctant to stick their claims all the way to the end - win or lose." realworldtech.com This whole article is a good read .. I'd highly recommend it.
