Elmer, Re: "We've seen Itanium2 under HP-UX beat POWER4 under AIX on some compute-intensive benchmarks substantially"

Now that's *very* interesting, especially since Itanium 2 only runs at 1GHz, while the Power4 is at 1.3GHz. The 1.33GH-1.6GHz Madison processor coming out in Q2 2003 should be even more interesting. :-)

And all this time we were told by our "reliable" source Dan3 that Itanium 2 "real world" performance would be rather "dog" like. Maybe my definition of "dogish" performance is different than Dan3's, but "substantially" outperforming the industry leading Power4 processor sounds to me like Intel could have a real winner on their hands.

Very good news for any Intel investors, since the high end enterprise market remains an "untapped" resource from which Intel can gain very high margin revenues.
