P.S. I'm not going to post at TMF, at least while SI is alive. Doesn't TMF close threads down when the stocks get below $1? That the TMF Rambus thread won't last as long as this one. ya, i think. still, TMF is free. Plus, the SI rmbs board is kinda dead. who cares if SI keeps the rmbs board if there is no discussion? A lot of people say that Intel is a gorilla, and what a gorilla wants, a gorilla gets. I think that Intel is a company, not a gorilla, but just to humor them, here's what Intel wants: ok, now you are providing me some reasons. You feel Intel wants DDR. I can't dispute this. Intel is working on DDR chipsets. Intel's gorilla position may not be as strong as say Microsofts', but they have market power. They can apply pressure to the OEMs, ect.. I'm in the same position in the electronics industry. I'm one of the guys who designs high volume products that use memory, and I can tell you what types of memories will be the "fad" when the current designs hit the factories. For me this is simple. It's what I do for a living. again, i'm not going to argue this. This is your bread and butter, but that doesn't mean you can't be wrong. Many smart people have made wrong decisions. But answer this question. Supporting DDR would help Intel's competitors, no? This would help AMD, VIA, and Micron. Why would Intel want to do this?
