Elmer, to put things on a different note, I just came back from Microprocessor Forum. I went to the Monday Seminar, the Monday and Tuesday Conferences, and the Tuesday Expo. There were a lot of great exhibits, much information, and a lot of good discussion during the Q&A panel. Sun introduced Jalapeno, HP introduced Mako, IBM had info on Power4, Compaq described EV7 and had some info on EV79, and of course, as you know, AMD introduced "Hammer". Intel's part at MPF wasn't insignificant, either. Some pretty concrete information was given about McKinley, as well as information on Intel's 870 chipset. If there's anything you are particularly interested in, I'll post the information that I have.
