PB,

<<If you look at the amount of resources that went into Merced and what it has cost Intel w.r.t. x86 roadmap, looks like some one was dreaming otherwise. There was a Dilbert piece yesterday with Dilbert wondering about the winners of "management vs. reality" contest. Sounded like the IA-64 story to me.>
You are certainly entitled to your opinion. However, I do not agree with your assessment.>

Yup, we are all entitled to our opinions. You got my agreement on that one but nevertheless I am shocked to see that you disagree with mine ;-)

Just to help me pull myself out of that shock, could you share yours? Why do you think Intel fell behind so badly on x86 architecture. No new core for about 6 years now and you don't but that it is because Intel got distracted with IA64 - so, what, prey, is the reason? What is your take on that?

Chuck
