The Death Knell for RAMBUS -- 9:36 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

ZDNet is reporting that Intel is dropping rebates for PC makers who make PCs with P4s and RDRAM. Intel's official line is that RAMBUS' RDRAM has dropped in price enough that the rebate is no longer necessary. However, since Intel is coming out with an SDRAM chipset for the P4, you have to wonder how much they are going to push RDRAM from now on. At the very least we won't be forced to use a more expensive technology that doesn't deliver comparable performance. Thanks Slashdot.

The Master comments: So, when is Intel going to let us FINALLY sing: "ding, dong the witch is dead"?
