SiS Licenses RDRAM

Oh no, we've been hoodwinked again (imagine that in the world of tech news). Despite the denials , it turns out that SiS will indeed be prancing about with Rambus in the coming years. SiS and Rambus just announced an expansion of the RDRAM licensing agreement between the companies. SiS expanded their license with Rambus to include the current generation of RDRAM technology, known as Direct RDRAM , which lets SiS integrate RDRAM IP into future products. According to The Inquirer , this is a major step for both SiS and Rambus because, until now, the only company building P4/Rambus chipsets was Intel.
