INTEL CEO says RAMBUS A MISTAKE!!! good thing we shorted at $84.00 lololol! Thanks to Chris for sending word of this article from The Register. The article deals with a recent interview with Intel CEO Craig Barrett, published by The Financial Times. In the interview, Barrett admits his company's alliance with Rambus has turned out to be a mistake, while he also frowned on Rambus' recent legal action against many members of the DRAM industry: In an interview published in The Financial Times, Barrett admitted: "We made a big bet on Rambus and it did not work out." He said that it had been a mistake to rely on another company for technology that "gates your performance". In the interview he also slams Rambus's policy of suing its competitors. "We hoped we were partners with a company that would concentrate on technology rather than seeking to collect a toll from other companies."
