Dan,

Itanium/McKinley runs only 32 or 64. Unless you are going to give up all possibility of using the 64 bit execution units of Itanium/McKinley (not a bad idea unless/until there is some software for it) it may be that you can't use the 32 bit hardware in Itanium/McKinley.

You don't think that Itanium will have a mode under which Windows 64 would be able to start 32bit app and use hardware 32bit portions of Itanium to run it?
