Rob - Re: "More than 20 major system vendors and six operating-system vendors are committed to delivering IA-64 products when Itanium (code-named Merced) begins shipping next year." Every positive statement that Gwennap made about Merced, you considered in error. This one clear mistake by Gwennap (ITanium to ship next year, not this year), you accept as correct. How transparently jealous you are. We sure love all them Alpha design wins !!!!! So - when is WildFlower being released? Paul

six operating-system vendors are committed to delivering IA-64 products As I understand it, IA-64 is waiting mostly for Microsoft Windows64. They don't ship until that ships (Unless it is way too late I suppose). I have heard rumors that Microsoft will not ship any programs for IA64 if Mfgs. deliver Linux64 before Windows is ready. All IA-64 processors will execute x86 instructions in hardware I suppose this would be technically true no matter how they simulated the x86 instructions. TP (Who can't figure out why Intel didn't just run with the Alpha since they bought it)
