Petz, <The published SPECint numbers for Itanium are aweful! What percetage of servers do any floating point? 10%? SPECfp per $ is awful too.> The real deal will be TPC-C, since Itanium is being targeted at back-end database servers where TPC-C is the best measure available. You might find that Itanium achieves some very respectable TPC-C numbers despite the low SPECint scores, not to mention very respectable TPC-C/dollar scores as well. By the way, I don't know why you think SPECfp/dollar is a valid measure, because only Duron would do well in that department, yet you don't see any Duron-based systems in high-end workstations.
