Rob, the point was that you have constantly poked fun at the Itanium schedule slips, yet you conveniently brush off the Alpha schedule slips as if they don't matter.

I fully expect a 733 MHz Itanium to be the equivalent of a 1 GHz 21264 Alpha. That worried me for a while, considering Intel's apparent difficulty to get to 800 MHz and the possibility that Alpha will reach 1 GHz this year. But then I read about the 1 GHz Alpha coming out next year:

So it seems that Intel isn't the only one who has been slipping up. What sayeth you, if Itanium debuts (at least in pilot systems) in a month or two and they demonstrate much better performance than the current Alphas? Nah, that can't happen, since there will always be a faster Alpha somewhere around the corner ...
