<Chuck - re: Doesn't time to market favor a multi-threaded OS operating on multiple run-of-the-mill 64-bit processor systems instead of a EPIC kind of processor? Wouldn't it be a beast to verify McKinley and follow-on products and wouldn't that be their ultimate undoing? Why or Why not? Could you elaborate?>

I will go even further and say that you don't need 64-bit processor to dominate the high-end server market. AMD needs to extend x86 K8 to 64-bit addressing and it will give McKinley big headaches.
