<<Mishedlo> RDRAM has the overwhelming majority of the game console market??? Based on what numbers??? > RDRAM has the HDTV market. A market that presently Barely exists. > RDRAM has a toehold in the communications market. Like where?? > Anyway, with the arrival of the Pentium4, the desktop percentage is also about to explode. Based on what?? That post has no more vality than does Bilow's Dead Dead Dead B.S.>> First of Don, I copied that post from the FOOL - Thought I mentioned that but perhaps I did not. Second. You are wrong. We have yet to see DDR. RDRAM is real and is shipping in production quantities. What % of the market is Playstation. I honestly do not know the answer but I bet it is STAGGERING! Where is the growth. Sega or PSII? You have to know the answer! Communications - I can not answer except to say look at www.rambusite.com and see who is developing what using RDRAM when we STILL HAVE NOT SEEN A PRODUCTION DDR MOBO! Finally - as Scumbria said - This is no longer nabout RDRAM but about whether or not RMBS has rights to DDR. Short term I said I agree. I can see this point of view - BECAUSE THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE CAN NOT SEE MORE THAN 6 MONTHS DOWN THE ROAD!!! The market is saying YES to RMBS for what reason I do not know NOR DO I CARE! BUT IT IS. When RMBS can finish up with INTC down 22% I am damn convinced!
