Re: "3- My favorite quote was: "it eclipsed a Sun machine with Oracle."

And that was an 8-way system surpassing a 32-way Sun machine.

Amy - Re: 'at the expense of the aforementioned Mountain View company"

Just who is this mysterious Mountain View company in Microsoft's GUN SIGHTS ?

And you are correct - Microsoft kept repeating over and over - INTEL PLATFORMS, INTEL PLATFORMS.

Perhaps Microsoft has now realized what the FOUNDATION is for all their success ?

At least they never mentioned ATHLON PLATFORMS !

Amy - Re: "from WinY2k, and he said this is good because it will take time for it to work into the channels... yet he said, "RTM is still 12/31/99" "

If Intel reiterated that Merced/ITANIUM will ship in H2/2000 - but ON 12/31/2000, Intel's stock would INSTANTANEOUSLY drop $25 !

When Microsoft uses this pyrrhic ploy, every analyst applauds Microsoft's superb execution - only 1 1/2 years LATE !
