rosemary, it seems these days that reporters get paid for word count not content. if one continually reads the tech articles written by writers not techies you will hear and find what you are looking for. be it good for rambus or be it bad for rambus. i try to differentiate between the ramblings of writers and the data provided by the techies. we have the same here on the thread. me? i'm a rambler. timothy, woodside, shibumi, bernard, dave b, and several others are highly qualified techies. our thread techies are very positive about rambus. everyone of those names i just listed have told me personally in the past 3 weeks that they are actively buying RMBS shares now. discussing this or that detail in a magazine article makes for an interesting day. talking about charts and the state of the market is fun. trying to predict a stock's low is ok (but many here have regretted doing that). doing DD on a company and finding top industry experts who are investing their own precious funds on a revolutionary idea that they have fully investigated and totally comprehend is fabulous news. unclewest

help me if i don't get this quite right. there are currently three types of rambus memory: base concurrent direct MHz 600 700 800 bandwidth 600 700 1.6G there are more advanced rambus memories in the pipeline. the original timeline was for rdram to be in max 5% of PCs this year 20-30% next year. i do not recall that it was any particular one of the three memories. now we have estimates of as high as 30% by the end of this year and over 50% next year. intel is giving away $100's of millions to speed up the process. why is anyone surprised at little glitches along the way? the hardest thing to do in any new endeavor is start the ball rolling. does it really make any difference which rambus memory starts the ball rolling? why aren't we all thrilled at the good news? i enjoyed the 70's party in palo alto. anybody for an 80's party?
