That's sad. I purchased his Windows 98 RAM patch a couple years ago. While I disliked some of his "scare tactics" I will call them, he did a lot of nice work. May he rest in peace.
Wow. His death was marked at least 3 websites.
That is sad :(
It is important.

I heard about the passing of this guy, too. I saw the news on a few other forums. I never really knew who he was, but he did seem pretty interesting in the tech biz.

I personally hope for the interrupt driver plus the other stuff needed to get USB 2.0 working in Windows 95.
Huh, I did hear that Rudolph's son has set up a new website related to his deceased father. It could be a nice way to fill in the void with Rudolph's content on the web, or as a memoir of him.
