I don't think that's what happened at all. Sun asserted all along that it was committed to the project; I never have understood what Intel's beef was.

JMHO.

Dear Paul: If you recall, it was never SUNW that said they wouldnt. That impression came from an INTC press release. SUNW denied it at the time and this would seem to support their original denial. JDN

Paul, good news about Sun coming out strongly in support of Itanium.

> Sun will bring its .com-grade operating environment to companies that choose Intel
processors and want the reliability, availability and scalability that only Solaris software provides.


These are probably the best advertising words to be had for a processor product right now, with regard to an OS running on it. There are conflicting reports out there about Sun's hardwareReliability, but Solaris' RAS, I don't think, is questioned. So, take the good partnership and advertising and nurture it should be the byline at Intel.
