"...And when a company is evasive with its answers, they often have something to hide, just like the Clinton White House..." OK, Tucker, you have just descended to the very level of behaviour that you seem to complain about: <<After a week and a half, an elaboration beyond, "You're wrong." is refreshing.>> Which company spokesman is being evasive? Who are you asking questions of? w/ regards to your comment: "...I don't mean to imply that the Hitachi and NEC licenses expire on 31 Dec 2000, just that they appear to be irrelevant after that." I suggest that you revisit the article I posted to you, eet.com Specifically the following quote: <<...an NEC spokesman said, "My understanding is that they will probably sign something by the end of the year." The new company "doesn't want a legal confrontation," he added. "It just wants to get the business established and up and running as smoothly as possible.">> The facts speak for themselves. NEC and Hitachi will do the manufacturing, not the new entity. NEC and Hitachi operate under the RMBS license agreements. RMBS has publicly stated that these agreements survive way past 1/1/01. 4 1/2 years past. An NEC spokesman suggests that the new entity will sign a license (even tho' IMO, one is not needed). GV, you know as well as I do that none of these players (DRAMurai or RMBS) are the clowns that they would have to be to be signing contracts that have 90 days of life to them. Lets get real and stop wasting bandwidth with that sort of hyperbole. BP
