SCUMbria - Re: "Why indeed? Exactly the argument against IA-64!"
Except that Software developers are already well along adopting IA64 to make use of its large address space for database applications, large register sets (integer and FP), and wide SMP capability (up tp 256 CPUs).
These markets will already be filled with IA64 offerings long before the SludgeHumper appears.
Is AMD still trying to hire SludgeHumper designers ?
