(read the article there, it is *not* pasted below)
Revolution is apparently going to be released in mid 2006. it will be using
MoSys 1T-SRAM for memory, like the Gamecube.
it seems that Elpida lost out on the Revolution RAM deal.
Elpida is a major provider of RAM. they're one of the RAM providers of
Rambus XDR memory for the upcoming PlayStation3.
MoSys was first selected by Nintendo in the late 1990s to make the RAM for
Dolphin (Gamecube) because of their special low-latency (fast) 1T-SRAM.
It seems Nintendo liked it enough to keep MoSys in on the successor system.
now lets hope that there is *enough* RAM in -Revolution- to make developers
happy.
We found out that the amount of RAM in Gamecube was cut dramatically at the
Spaceworld 2000 show, compared to how much it was originally supposed to
have when the system was called Project Dolphin.
