Carl,

When MAJC was conceived (called UltraJava at the time), it was intended to be an Intel killer. It was supposed to sell for several hundred dollars. Over time it slipped into the $15 embedded space, and apparently some clever person at Sun Microelectronics figured out that you can't sell a $15 processor with $200 worth of DRDRAM.

Carl,

That was 4 months ago. The big RDRAM design win at Sun. Where are the chips? MAJC was announced in October 1999, but still no chips, no data sheets, no benchmarks, no design wins. Things are starting to sound a little fishy here.

You ("the bears") had plenty of excuses when we pointed out that DDR was announced and supposed to ship over three years ago. You can apply some of those excuses to MAJC. <G>

Dave
