Monica, <Sledgehammer won't be out until the end of 2001, that leaves almost two years for software developers to write their code for the Itanium - since this chip has been sampling since late in 1999.>

This is the biggest problem with Sledgehammer. Although people ridicule the lateness of Itanium, the fact is that it will be here at least a year and a half before Sledgehammer. Perhaps Jerry Sanders knows this as well, which is why he's spreading anti-Itanium FUD in a (futile) effort to scare developers away from IA-64.
