Für die, die über den Tellerrand von Charts hinausblicken und sich mit dem Zeitproblem von Rambus beschäftigen wollen, hier mal die (nicht überraschende) Micron Sicht.

Takes the Long View
CEO Appleton talks about the challenges facing the company as it diversifies in the face of patent litigation and other investigations

You've been fighting with Rambus now for years. Do you ever get sick of dealing with it and think you'll just settle and make the whole thing go away?

There is always a cost-benefit analysis you have to do. First of all we don't think we violated their technology. Secondly we think the IP they did get, they got while deceiving us and others while sitting at the table at JEDEC. So sometimes you have to stand on principle. We have three cases that have to be tried, and one has to do with spoliation of evidence. What we believe is that not only did they engage in illegal and deceptive practices, they knew they were going to litigation and they destroyed trash cans' full of documents in preparation for this, and that has already been proven. Infineon won that case against them. Next year we'll get to a trial on the actual merits of the patents, and then one year after that, we try their behavior at JEDEC. We're still a long ways out. Again we believe we're right and that is how we're approaching it.
