John - re: 'Over the next three years, NEC aims to sell 2,000 of the servers, dubbed AzusA. Of that total, NEC expects HP to sell half, mainly in the United States and Europe, and plans to sell the rest through NEC sales channels in Japan and Southeast Asia, Kobayashi said. NEC hasn't decided prices yet. HP will take advantage of NEC's server technology. In 1995, NEC allied with HP on servers running the Unix operating system and last year began developing AzusA, which uses HP's so-called IA-64 technology based on 64-bit processors and operating systems."

This must be HP's method of marketing and Selling ITanium servers - without having to do the design or manufacturing.

It seems they were so EAGER to skip the ITanium - and wait for McKinley - that HP found itself in a big product hole - and found a way out via NEC.
