Petz,

Louis Burns is the one who said last May I believe that he doesn't have anything other than Rambus chipsets on his roadmap.

Petz: This statement was not supported by any further explanation, however, and amounts to no more than an attempt to disseminate FUD

Intel isn't the only dominant company resorting to these tactics in order to undermine a competing product. Maybe you've seen the pdf NVIDIA has been sending out to its major customers? (JC has a link to it and a, seemingly thorough, rebuttal on his site). IMHO that pdf reeks of desperation. I've said it before and I'll say it again: NVIDIA has a huge hole in its product roadmap, utterly failing to solve the one, major bottleneck in modern 3D graphics cards (that being bandwidth to memory). It wouldn't surprise me if someone comes along and takes a serious chunk of the market, and the pdf clearly shows that NVIDIA is afraid the Kyro2 might do just that.
