Re: "it will almost certainly provide the core of lower cost workstations and enterprise servers than Itanium. "

Just what SUN wants - to sell enterprise servers cheaper than ITanium servers !!

That will do wonders for McNealy's bottom line !

By the way - in a few days, 4-way, 8-way and 16-way ITanium servers will be announced by some "well established" companies - HP. Dell, IBM, Compaq, etc.

Has AMD ever had 2 (TWO) CPUs - in an SMP mode - designed in to a shipping system by a well established company?

And if they haven't, how do you expect SUN to somehow come up with say a 32-way SludgePumper ENTERPRISE SERVER when AMD can't even produce a 2-way AthWIpers4US server?
