<You got the late part correct... the rest of it isn't correct.> I read it in an issue of Microprocessor Report. Unfortunately, I don't have that issue available right now, but it was sometime around the latter half of 1998. The blurb said that original target was 40/60, and the actual starting scores were around 24/40. I guess a lot can happen over the course of six months, like an increase to a score of 30/52. It amazes me, though, that Dell's fastest system based on a Pentium III Xeon gets 24.3 on SpecInt95, which isn't too far away from Alpha's current best of 30. (Floating point is another story, but then again, this is no secret.) <Want to guess SpecInts and Fps? Better or worse than Merced?> Guess it depends on Merced's starting speeds. <How's that low-cost IA64?> IA-64 isn't going low-cost any time soon, because the initial lack of software makes a low-cost solution useless. Deerfield will be Intel's first "low-cost" IA-64, but that won't be out until after McKinley. Tenchusatsu
