Kap,

Excellent points from a long term view point. One thing I disagree is this being a "brain dead" move for Compaq.

It was brain-dead for them to have bought Tandem and DEC in the first place. Now that has been done, it is a sin to maintain two completely disparate platforms and a third one with Itanium and fourth one potentially with x86-64.

Consolidation is a great move....compared to the alternatives.
