Huh? I write convuluted sentences but am having
a real tough time with your second sentence. Please
re-word ... can't figure it out.

Regarding your adding up of the points.. okay. I think
though that Itanium will have a tough time with other
4 processor IA32 boxes in that timeframe (Nov-Dec 2000).

If the Itanium is $4000 for 800 MHz and 4 MB Cache and
performs equivalent to $1200 dollars worth of IA32 parts,
you have a solution begging for a problem (i.e. Itanium
4 processor can handle 16 Gigs of memory, large memories
and we know that all major DB vendors of 32-bit "hacks"
to hide the memory limitations, etc.)

We shall see.
