They did? Guess all my friends in Willamette-ville can go home now, since Intel is obviously dumping x86 in favor of IA-64.>

Guess I can severely scale back my hours, since Merced is going to dwarf IA32 product volume....not.

Where did I say dumping? I said "ignored".

I don't know about your friends but someone went home a long time back. Wilamette is an old project, you know! Started well before AMD started K7 and unlikely to go to production for another year at least.
