HP on Itanium: The chicken and the pig...

There's an old story about a chicken and a pig going to a country breakfast.

The chicken, it is said, is involved. The pig is committed

future.enterprisecomputing.hp.com

The funny thing is that HP is the chicken, and Intel is the pig!

It has a great point counter point between HP and IBM concerning EPIC. IBM makes the strong case that compile to optimization is insufficient. HP mentions that run time profiling would benefit EPIC architectures. HP has it.(Transmedia sells it with (designs it in to) their chips, why won't HP give something similar to Intel to sell?)

Also note that the HP guy doesn't say the debate will be resolved until after the release of the 3rd generation EPIC chip. (northwood?) Hardly a ringing endorsement.
