Itanium is a piece of dogsh** & McKinley doesn't matter because it doesn't yet exist. Itanium was on the drawing board back in 1996. It is now 2001 and it never did make spec. Besides that, there's no O/S for Itanium and there won't be an O/S for McKinley. Itanium probably doesn't matter. But McKinley certainly will matter and is scheduled to launch by year end. I believe there will be operating system support by then. It also should have a huge price/performance edge over Sun. Actually, all Sun will have left is the hype and all the stale buzz words. But, I'm sure they will continue the hype and probably invent a whole new series of buzz words. The new Sun motto could be: Keep the Spin Alive! I think you are yet another victim of Sun-stroke.
