Rob, it's very funny how you keep popping in and out of this thread downplaying Itanium and hyping up Alpha, when Intel is much more concerned about UltraSparc than Alpha. Supercomputer design wins are nice and all that, but the real money is in the back-end server arena, where Sun dominates. Why isn't Compaq/Alpha making any inroads here?
