maybe...maybe not.......he's been around a long time...and as I understand it....he and his brother have been involved in digital developments of some kind....maybe I have him confused with some one else.....but I don't think so....we've gone around before.

"As for RAM being removed, this is not the first time nor the first company to do so."

That would be fitting for a system that does not create new data or have to manipulate data  in any way....having a static configuration to operate.

When it comes to a system needing the ability for variable non static application,  an intermediate component is needed be it RAM or that which e.Digital implements....something is needed.

My argument is, when you see a variable non static system removing the RAM,  what have they replaced it with,  still keeping the variable quality?

As for RAM=   My original post started..." For those that have an interest......."  As you represent,  it's just that simple a lookup if someone is truly interested in understanding.

Thanks for your comments, I appreciate them....
