stak, Re: "Merced won't be the one to open the floodgates, not due to a flaw in its design or execution, but just because IS and IT managers are loath to be the first on the block to flesh out new tech (IA-64)." Don't kid yourself. The whole IT universe is waiting for Merced (even Sun Microsystems and Scott McNealy). You are right in that the big quantities of IA-64 servers probably won't ship until McKinley. Intel has already said that its performance would exceed Merced's a lot. However, every server manufacturer will develop systems based on Merced to test compatibility, performance, scalability, etc., etc. of the architecture. These development activities to get ready for the floodgate opener, as you say, McKinley. Hey, it's 64 bit! Those computer development freaks can't wait to get their hands on it! Tony
