Bmw Re...Therefore, expect volumes in the tens or hundreds of thousands per quarter, while x86 architectures and extensions continue to sell in the millions.<<<<<

The trouble with that picture is that the OEMs and INtel won't make any money with small volumes. So unless they can see a payoff, they are likely to say sayonara.

Of course, that certainly doesn't make it a "dead duck". <<<<

Perhaps I mispoke there. It will be a shooting duck; on this board anyways.

First, you might want to consider Hammer's similarity with Alpha. High cost manufacturing process, high pin count package, similar architecture, similar complex topology, and a number of the same designers, too.<<<<<

Yes all the things one might need; except Alpha didn't have the software, just as IA-64. With MSFT and Linux, Hammer should do alright.
