RatBrain - Re:"What you don't seem to understand is that SledgeHumper already has a major installed software base: the X86 market."

That installed base is 32 Bit Code - which will run incredibly fast by Willamette and Northwood (0.13 micron Willy) - so what does the SludgePumper do with the other 32 bits - just burn more power in idle mode?

Re: "? The performance of x86 apps on Itanium is no better than the performance of x86 apps under emulation on a number of RISC chips- was that ever good enough?"

No kidding ?

You have access to ITanium performance data ?

That makes you the first - please POST THESE results - or a URL - for the rest of us to see.
