<Petz - re: Should AMD be designing a CPU for the IA-64 intruction set or should they "roll their own" or stick with IA-32. What do you all think? In what timeframe will IA-32 be less than 50% of the market for PC's/workstations?>

A very good question. I think they should stay with IA-32 for a long time (6 years or more), just extend the physical addressing of the instruction set to 48 or 64 bits and go for a very fast MHz design. I don't think they need to go beyond the 9-issue superscalar.
