Rob - Re: "Paul, come on. Merced is so late it isn't even funny.
We see people dredging up articles from 1996 talking about
1998 Merced roll-out,etc. etc."

Getting nervous ?

What about those 1996 articles calling for the 21264 Alpha roll out in 1997 ?

Too bad the Alpha is nearly dead.

And guess where Compaq is concentrating their Server efforts ?

Yep.

You guessed it !

Xeons and Merced !

Re: "HP people have given us clues by comparing HP/UX binaries running on Merced, 85% of 8500 numbers."

Those were HP binaries running in emulation mode, not Merced binaries. Overall 85% of native HP mode is pretty damn good for emulation.
