Compaq derides tin, praises services theregister.co.uk Meanwhile, this bit from Mike's old rag. I can see a hint of common ground between IA-64 and Alpha, with speculation and SMT merging into DMT, but it would be a real mess to even attempt that kind of merger without redesigning the whole architecture from scratch. Who cares, anyway? Not Q: Compaq will bring its clustering technology and Alpha compiler technology into the IA-64 and hinted that it, and not Hewlett-Packard (which co-developed the IA-64 architecture) were now Intel's favourite partner. "The way forward is to deliver the underlying solution - not just tin", said George. Compaq - and before it Digital - is said to have invested $15 billion in the Alpha processor before canning it last month. Now, it's tin. And that's official. ® Then there's the question of how DEC and Compaq spent $15 billion on Alpha, while Itanic supposedly only cost $1 billion.
