RE:"Frankly, I think promoting Merced on this thread is a mistake."...

I fear that the Merced itself may be a mistake now that Willy is b*lls to the wall. If MHz sells (TM McMannis) not to mention Gigahertz sells (TM McMannis) then the Merdud-600 is going to have a tough row to hoe vs Willy's...1500 Mhz FPU and 3000 Mhz Integer.
Maybe Scumbria and some others can speculate relative performance of the Merdud-600 and the (1500+3000)/2=2250 MHZ Willy? I guess Intel can pray for IA64...
