It looked like a new technology but then again, I don't know much about memories... The authors of the paper (Sorry, I can't remember who they were) basically stated that their FRAMs were similar to a EEPROM, but with reads and writes at DRAM speed. This memory, if available, would make a great replacement for ROM/EPROM chips or true recoverable ram disks. Any comments? -Stephane Stephane Laroche | Email: stephane@Chucla.CAM.ORG +1 514 277-8605 | Montreal, Que., Canada
