Pravin - <I seriously doubt if MS is stupid enough to kill Intel's only competition. They make money on every box shipped, and the competition has spurred sales. This will also hold true at the high end.>

If you read Eric N.'s posts, he indicated that the decision for no Alpha on NT was CPQ's due to basically no interest in the IT server community. This puts an entirely different spin on the NT / Alpha announcement.

I would think if Alpha/CPQ had a hard time competing with Intel/NT, AMD will have a tough row to hoe to crack the corporate server space. I believe Jerry has said as much.
