By Bloomberg News... Re:IBM... IBM says higher end expensive PC's and work stations will be based on Intel chips and include Rambus... news.com ****************************************************************** Rambus falls on IBM concerns By Bloomberg News Special to CNET News.com June 1, 1999, 2:05 p.m. PT Rambus, a designer of high-speed computer chips, fell as much as 13 percent on concern that IBM may choose a competing technology for its personal computers. Rambus fell 10 to 67 1/2 in late trading, after touching 67 1/4. Yesterday, Cahners Business Information's Electronic News, citing unnamed sources, reported that IBM decided to drop support of Rambus technology in its personal computers in favor of a competing technology called PC-133. IBM said today that it plans to use PC-133 in its low-end PCs to be introduced in the second half of this year, though higher-end expensive PCs and workstations released at the same time will be based on Intel computer chips and Rambus products. "It's no secret that IBM has been a supporter of PC-133, but they have not come out against Rambus," said David Wehner, a Hambrecht & Quist analyst who rates Rambus "market perform."
