          Altavista....the NEW rambus!!!

          I see AV have a patent on searching an index that means if I open up an index file in notepad, hit F3 to search it, I'm breaking one of their patents? Come on!

          I bet Compaq wish they still owned thm now.... maybe compaq (Digital) still actually own the rights...hmmm....

            The online market is going nuts lately, sites are dropping like flies. Doesn't surprise me that the game is getting rougher and the knives are coming out.
