<I'm glad you're not a Doctor. You'd be declaring a lot of people dead despite their protests, then ask them to cosign the
death certificate. If the rumors are true, this "dead" processor will post the highest floating point SPEC scores ever
published. Having already been displaced by P4, your beloved Alpha is slipping further down the performance curve.
Imaging that, Intel 1,2. >

The Alpha EV68 at 1.3 GHz is estimated to do 800 SpecInt2000, 1000 SpecFp2000. It isn't a matter of "if" Alpha
goes back on top, but "when." I see Dell is shipping a 1.7 GHz P4 that does 609 SpecFp2000. That's pretty decent.

Don't expect any Itanium Spec numbers. Intel told us they won't be publishing Spec numbers for
Itanium. We were told they "weren't important" or some nonesense. I imagine DellIntella will be obedient and
won't embarass , I mean publish , them.
