re: Itanium I don't believe I have seen any analyst even mention the Itanium 2000 roll-out when they review Intel's valuation"

Hi John,

I've been wondering about this too. Paul, do you know how long it takes for a brand new processor to roll out and start having impact on the bottom-line? Once it ships, does it take 2 quarters or 4? It'll take time to get customers to develop to this platform. The thousand samples they mentioned in the PR will help (i.e. getting started early), however, I really wonder how long this will take before it significantly shows up in the bottom-line?

RE: "Am I overestimating the importance of this product?"
I think it's important. I may be overestimating it short-term because maybe rollouts take a long time. I don't know. I think the question is, "how long will it take to really roll this out to a wide base?" Which quarter of which year?

RE:"will be significant sales at great, *incremental*, gross margins."
My thoughts too. Higher margins I bet.

RE: "potential certainly isn't in the stock price."
One reason why I keep buying INTC for the long-term.
