Intel has good reason to want to protect themselves (I hadn't noticed this before):

Intel invented DRAM and started the entire market in the
1970s, but got out of it in the mid-'80s when Japanese
manufacturers were dumping the product, forcing nine of 11 U.S.
makers of memory out of the market. It was at that point that
Intel bet the company on microprocessors, which were not yet a
mass-market product.
