VC, I'll ignore all your other dumb comments, and focus on the one about royalties. Why would Rambus devote huge amounts of effort to obtain royalties for a doomed-to-failure product? Obviously the management of Rambus has a different view about DDR than many of the longs on this thread. Scumbria

RDRAM is relatively mature? I believe there were actually three flavors of Rambus DRAM. Toshiba had working RDRAM for graphics in silicon in 1992, and announced production in 1993. In 1994 Nintendo announced it would use RDRAM in it's game console. Concurrent RDRAM came out around 1997 and Direct RDRAM in 1998. I believe that among other differences, RDRAM and CRDRAM were only one byte wide. When most people refer to RDRAM they really mean DRDRAM. But it's been evolving for many years. JMHO's
