Tony - Re: "Take this up to 32 way SMP and it will do what Mary keeps saying IA64 will. " ITanium is being used to prove out the architecture - and McKinley will hopefully "slide right in" and accelerate the pervasiveness of IA64 systems. Note that McKinley is targeted at 1.2 GHz - but is STILL a 0.18 micron device. The follow on IA64 CPU to McKinley - Madison - will be a 0.13 micron device - which should really provide a quantum leap in clock speeds - but that will be 2 or 3 years out in my estimate. Intel has the IA64 pipeline pretty full ! Paul
