First that one sue (or was it a lawsuit... same thing right?)  about Nvidia and ATI something about sharing price ranging or something together.  And now Nvidia is being sued for faulty GPUs.

Wonder how this affects consumers anyway....

That Rambus thing is kinda odd. Seems what they really want is for nVidia to do some licensing agreement thing for percentage or sumtin. nVidia keeps wanting to be isolationist, but slowly giving in.

What? Rambus is still around? I thought they went the way of the dodo long time ago.
 
Are they working on a new type of RAM?

Actually, I'd like to know how it affects (or has affected) DS customers who put Nvidia's products into their builds.
