Thanks Mike Martinez.
- Rambus Files New Memory Chip Patent Suit. Infringing on 18 patents with one product seems to me a clear indictment of the patent system.
- Broadband Reports | Download.com DC Trojan? P2P app and a little something extra.
- AOL shutting down newsgroups.
- HP focuses on paparazzi-proof cameras.
- A mini-guide to Mac OS X for new Mini owners.
- Falcon Northwest' FragBox Barebones Case is now for sale separately.
- All You Need to Know About Bass Management.
Tim, you're such stupid fanboi. Are you a lawyer working for rambus?
You use the word "outperform" but you're only using the memory bandwidth to compare performance, you don't mention that RDRAM had/has a huge latency disadvantage. That's like comparing sports car using top speed as your only criteria.
Let's take a trip down memory lane and look at some benchmark from when RDRAM was introduced to see why it tanked: http://www.anandtech.com/showdoc.aspx?i=1245&p=13 .
What's so hard to understand that Rambus are shady because they kept their patents secrets, got the IP into the standard, then started suing everyone?
