Wanna Re...If Madison has 64-bit performance that meets or exceeds Opteron, then it might come down to a race for who can get major software support first. In that case, my money would be on Intel, given the fact that they've had a year or more of a "head start".<<<<<<

Do you really believe what you are saying. If Madisons performance lead over Hammer is questionable, Madison is a dead duck. Hammer or Yawmill will easily outsell it, because Hammer and Yawmill will have the software, and price. Madison needs to soundly beat Power 4 and Sparc by enough to persuade buyers to pay the price for new software. Without it, Itanium is another Alpha.
