TWY, Re: "Probably not. But that was never my contention. wanna-bmw invented that issue. Now you seem to have bought into it as well. I simply said (about 4 times now) that Power4 would have higher volumes than the two separate chips currently used for R6000 and AS400 combined.."

Are those chip families being phased out immediately? Given the stable nature of these markets, I doubt it. Will Power4 eventually ramp to be higher volume than those designs? Maybe, but how high of a volume would that be? If it's not higher than the market Itanium can provide, then you are missing the point, and going off tangents again. Not that I care, but if you are going to use this statement as a counter-point for Itanium, then you should state why you brought it up.
