SemiconEng now, boys, stop fighting. Semi (can I call you that) provides a different point of view and it should be appreciated. Well, I have one of those nasty questions regarding "Intel said the Itanium and McKinley will run 32- and 64-bit programs seamlessly on the same chip hardware, using a bit switch to send 32-bit instructions to on-chip registers designed to operate in a compatibility mode. Waxman said there is no loss of performance when operating in the native 32-bit mode. 1) what does "will run 32- and 64-bit programs seamlessly" mean? I can say the same thing about alpha. 2) "there is no loss of performance" That another one for the history books. No loss in performance as compared to what - itself? Regards -Albert
