Jonas: Great post, as usual! You ask: "Anybody know what this is about? From Yahoo thread 2856 rk.gsfc.nasa.gov; They are concerned about the behaviour of memory after a heavy dose of ionising radiation. You could get this during nuclear war or by massive cosmic ray activity in outer space. I don't think the experiment will sink FRAM! RichardW

Intel holds line on Direct Rambus Once more, Intel has maintained that it will not use PC-133 or PC-266 memory, despite increasing signs that Direct Rambus DRAM's horizon is receding. As reported here earlier, Intel will adopt a half-way house strategy to the slight delay in DRDRAM by introducing a PC-100 version of the i820 chipset. But sources close to the chip giant are telling The Register there is a plan to implement PC-133 memory if DRDRAM shows more signs of adopting a belly-up position. The source said: "Intel is an intelligent company. If I was Intel I wouldn't be putting all my eggs into the Direct Rambus market. I would have thought it would have a backup strategy." Intel, when contacted, said that everything remained unchanged on the PC-133 and PC-266 front. ® theregister.co.uk
