The article is diametically opposite of reality. An irresponsible misrepresentation of facts. Rather than inform investors, they seek to manipulate them. I think it is that same tach that serously hurt the street.com as is evidenced in their stock price. However, as far as rambus stock price is concerned, perhaps it helps rambus longs. While informed investors continue to accumulate, neophytes may take short positions based on micron/amd propaganda - causing a higher short covering spike.

Pat, Re: "mystery memory" I agree 100%. Here we are 3+ years after we even knew (no mystery) about DDR and they still can't get a DDR PC out. And here they talk about some mystery memory that hasn't even been designed yet. The FUD and vaporware game at its finest. I'm surprised that they didn't also say "the mystery memory will be here on time, have unlimited performance, no latency, draw no power, cost nothing and leap tall building in a single bounce". It's the kind of stuff I expect from their vaporware FUD machine. Or maybe that's Bert and Inquest that I'm think off. ;-) ;-)

OT. Pat, Three things every tavern owner should know... 1. It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer, and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the "honey month" or what we know today as the honeymoon." 2. In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and quarts. So in old England, when customers got unruly, the bartender would yell at them mind their own pints and quarts and settle down. It's where we get the phrase "mind your P's and Q's 3. Many years ago in England, pub frequenters had a whistle baked into the rim or handle of their ceramic cups. When they needed a refill,they used the whistle to get some service. "Wet your whistle," is the phrase inspired by this practice.
