Artile : "Intel Banks on IA64 to Compete with Sun" at
electronicnews.com

Here are the revenue projections for server-processors (hope the projections are not revised with the market downturn):
The market is big and is certainly up for grabs. According to a server-processor revenue forecast from JS Bancorp Piper Jaffray, revenues from IA64 processors are expected to reach $25 billion in 2003. Revenues from RISC processors are expected to remain flat for the next two years and actually decrease to $35 billion in 2003. The total server processor market is expected to reach $89 billion in 2003.

About Itanium :
Analysts who were skeptical about earlier versions of the Itanium have now changed their tune. "Earlier the Itanium was not meeting expectations, but now it's more fine-tuned," Ghatpande said. More importantly, Itanium has garnered support from all major OEMs and analysts believe it will offer a better deal on price/performance.

Intel Hits Key Milestone -- Yields First Silicon From Industry's Most Advanced 0.13 Micron, 300 mm Wafer Fab

A key bit of information not usually made public is:

Intel's D1C Development Fab is located in Hillsboro, Ore. The facility features a 135,000 square foot clean room, which is larger than most production factories in the industry.

[My comment] This single development fab is larger than AMD's Dresden fab.
