it is amusing to watch how mood is changing on this thread with or without any reason. You are right about possibility of workstations from compaq and/or ibm. There are companies out there like nec and etc that would likely to use athlon mp even if ibm/compaq would stay away.
Last time compaq stated that there is no way no how they are going to use amd chips in their computers that was 2 days before compaq announced k6 designs.
And it is not even clear if ibm was speaking about athlon-4 since the GHz don't much and look at the following note
Message 15870381
that states that mp boards would be available before athlon-4 with smartmp
There is no reason for 2 of the largest oems to make such a definitive statement about their plans not to use some parts.
