DMF, I just saw the article today. I wouldn't be surprised about Sun's unwillingness to support Solaris for IA-64. That's unfortunate, given that many people I know liked Solaris as an operating system.

I can understand why Sun would not want to support a platform that could take potential market share away from UltraSparc. But in my opinion, I'm not sure UltraSparc stands a chance, whether or not they support IA-64 Solaris. Far be it for Scott McNealy and company to admit defeat this soon, however.
