Thanks Alan,

I thought IBM was the sponsor of DDR? Wouldn't they have something by now?

Hi all; The thread from 2 years ago:

Alan Hume, April 27, 1999
Biggest problem that DDR has, is that it does not have a sponsor. In other words no box maker has adopted it for a future platform as yet. It is constantly being touted by the DRAM manufacturers as an alternative, as they are reluctant to get into RDRAM manufacture. The reasons why are manifold.

Where is Alan Hume these days? He was buying RMBS at $400 per share (see #reply-13193491 , #reply-13168355 ), but pretty much quit the thread in August of last year:

But frankly, if in the mid term the PE settles at 60 and earnings are acheived of $2.50 this would give us a price of $150. I think that is a reasonable target. #reply-14259012

Don't short it in an up trend. #reply-14254365 also #reply-14253960

DDR will land in the same basket as the electric car, the water burning engine, cold fusion and many other great paper ideas. #reply-14254239

In re Rambus supposedly negotiating with Infineon:
Rome built one of the greatest Empires this planet has ever seen. They did this not by negotiation, but by killing anyone who opposed them. In today's speak, substitute "KILL" with "LITIGATE". The results are similar. Carry on marching Tate and Co, and don't take any prisoners. #reply-14247954

Carl, you have written a critical and somewhat humorous post on PixelFusion. Then you shoot yourself in the foot referring to their plans as "vapor ware". Discounting a few lab prototypes and a lot of talk, I conclude that DDR has produced far more vapor and certainly burned a factor more dollars than PixelFusion is ever likely to do. #reply-14205361 #reply-14205506 [And where are PixelFusion and DDR now, LOL!!!]
