Re:RAMBUS in PlayStation 2 (Score 1)

I strongly doubt Sony would prepare a contingency product of any kind. The technical specifications, the development tools and the code are all based around the implementation created, and they are probably in no hurry to introduce any potential incompatibilities or other such problems. It is interesting that Sony is not the first console system to utilize Rambus RAM; the Nintendo 64 actually takes that cake. I'm not sure how Nintendo was getting it, but if I'm not mistaken, Toshiba has some vested interest in not only Rambus research but also in Playstation 2 console.
