Paul, The dual core IA64 bit project is based on FUNCTIONAL and PROVEN existing single core IA64 ITanium. 300 watts? Scumbria

Paul, If you assumed that Intel did not have dual core x86 32 bit and IA64 bit cores underway, you would be very naive - and wrong. I didn't. This is what I said: "Intel's roadmap is not specific in this area, but if all Intel has is a single core CPU with traditional architecture" http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=14489684 You might ask yourself - What is the dual core Sludgehumper based on ? I would like to see a single core traditional CPU design with the core initially, as a proof of concept. There will eventually be something like that. There was some talk of a clawhammer, but I don't know what the timing will be. But anyway, my point to Tench was that SledgeHammer will be a competition of mainly Foster based Xeons. This is where the market is, and this is where the bulk of the market will be 1 year from now. It is unclear where Itanium will be 1, 2 years from now. One thing that you will not dispute is that the market share of Itanium is zero. Where will it be at the time of SledgeHammer launch? 0.1%? 1%? What do you think? Joe

Re: The dual core IA64 bit project is based on FUNCTIONAL and PROVEN existing single core IA64 ITanium. LOL! Proven how? Proven where? Running what operating system and executables? It's looking more and more like Intel's and AMD's 64 bit chips are going to hit the streets within a quarter or so of each other. AMD's will run the existing base of hundreds of thousands of programs at full speed while Intel's will be a major disappointment unless the buyers run a new, untested OS and all new, untested applications. At least McKinley won't use Rambus, will it? Dan
