<< I wonder if companies with a really bad memory controller history, as e.g. VIA Technologies, couldn't ask NVIDIA to give them a few tips on how to implement a crossbar memory controller. There is no doubt that microprocessors could benefit from this technology as well. Rambus Inc. could use this technology to tackle the latency penalty of RDRAM. In this case I hope that NVIDIA has applied for a patent early enough, because otherwise Rambus may follow its tradition, copy NVIDIA's design, patent it and then sue NVIDIA. >>
