John - Re: "I'm sure the 'droids will be saying Itanium systems don't exist because they can't find 'em at Best Buy."

What can you do about AMDroid logic?

Re: "Interesting that Sun warned. Is it the market or the market share? "

My guess - BOTH !

SUN's new products are late - and the high end is non-existent.

With Intel's barrage of XEON and ITanium product launches, SUN's markets are under siege - and their (SUN's) guns aren't loaded.

I tend to believe Sun may eventually use Intel's Itanium chip.
