Charles,

<Sun asserted all along that it was committed to the project; I never have understood what Intel's beef was.>

We may never know the exact reasons. But IMO, what is significant about the Sun announcement is that it seeks to reassure customers. Whatever Intel's motives, Suns customers must have been concerned by Intel's comments, enough it seems, for Sun to publicly issue a press release. If anything this demonstrates the commitment by customers to make Intel platforms succeed in the i32 and i64 enterprise world. After all, Sun could simply have reasserted its support by not mentioning "customers desires" for the Intel platform. Anyway, it seems like an interesting development.

Regards,

SK
