RatBrain - Re: "Alright Paul, I was speaking off the cuff. But nevertheless my opinion was a conservative one, and here is are the links to back it up."

Thanks for fessing up - you and most AMDroids keep spouting off your opinions as facts.

Re: "Itanium right now is running at 500MHz at demos, and it will be very generous to assume that it will make it to 800MHz, considering that the most recent releases I have read say that it is a 0.25 only chip."

That's because these are early Silicon devices.

All ITanium CPUs are 0.18 micron - so calibrate your sources by their inability to get simple facts straight.

Re: "To be generous, Itanium 600MHz will be around 600MHz coppermine."

On x86 code - but nobody will buy ITanium for running just x86 code.

Any idea how fast a 733 MHz ITaninum will do an on-the-fly Secure Sockets Layer encoding/decoding functions for 128/256 bit secvurity levels?

Why don't you go back and study the Server and Workstation markets before you make further incorrect and simplistic estimate of the ITanium performance.
