Is Rambus the Next 27 Bagger?

Nuke, outstanding summary of events!

Readers ought to take note; NukeJohn's research is better than any analyst out there. Take advantage of it.

Wealth is created by making big bets on unique opportunities, whether it's an idea for a new business, taking advantage of market bubbles or crashes, or finding that diamond in the rough. Diversification, at best, gets you market returns. It is making an investment in unique opportunities--in a big way--that gets you life-altering returns on your investment. You may have missed MSFT, QCOM, GOOG, AAPL, CSCO, DELL, ADBE, RIMM, EBAY, and many more. Yet here is your opportunity to get on the next four letter symbol to join that list--RMBS.

2009: Rambus' Year to Shine

Prufrock, great teaser of what's sure to be a 2009 story! I look forward to your next installment. It's refreshing to see the different perspective outside of a message board that counters the coordinated drum beats of document destruction and JEDEC deception--accusations that have now been rendered impotent in an honest court.

Unfortunately we still run across "opinion pieces," such as the one Tom Shohfi authored not too long ago, that reflect an abject ignorance of the facts and continue to promulgate half-truths and inuendo.

Thanks for bringing out what the potential of an investment in Rambus will be WHEN the justice system gets to end of the road for the cartel. Cheers.

Rambus's Litigation-Based Business Can't Last

You, my dear sir, don't have a clue about what's going on with Rambus. Put your journalist cap back on and do a little research instead of regurgitating the lies that the memory manufacturers have fed you.

"RDRAM failed because the minimal performance benefits that it provided were not worth the cost to consumers."

Why wasn't it worth the cost? Because the manufacturers conspired to fix prices of RDRAM and other infringing flavors of DRAM thereby keeping RDRAM more expensive (remember they pled guilty to this).

"This was the core reason for the mass adoption of cheaper chipsets supporting SDRAM and the marginalization of Rambus’s technology."

No, Intel, Dell and others were ready for mass adoption but the alleged boycott of RDRAM prevented it so. Stay tuned for that revelation.

"The company used its memory intellectual property portfolio to levy royalties on DDR (double-data rate) SDRAM..."

As they should, they invented the technology and patented it, the manufacturers decided to take it and incorporate it into their stale designs.

"...and is still fighting the FTC to keep royalty levels high."

No, the FTC has already suffered humiiating defeats at every level, including the Supreme Court. Rambus has won it's right to price its product in the free market place (problem is that the DRAM market isn't exactly "free" now is it when you have convicted price-fixers)

I could go on picking apart every sentence your wrote, but why bother, I've already demonstrated to your readers what an obviously biased and uninformed article this is.
