NEWS
The Register has reported that Rambus Direct RAM will be delayed past Q3 because yields of the devices are still not enough to support a wide-scale rollout. Check out the article here.

Intel reported that there would be a delay in Rambus parts, with favorable volumes available in Q3. Now this report is in question.

Prices of RDRAM are expected to be 50% higher than prices of 133 MHz SDRAM.

ROB'S OPINION
Intel needs to adapt. It is so stuck in this "RDRAM" glut that it may end up costing it massive market share. However, I can't say much about the 133 MHz SDRAM consortium either, since its product isn't out either.

I have to give Intel credit for holding out on the RDRAM party line for this long, even though no one else believes that it is wise or can be done. That's true incumbency.
