Re: IA-64 will be dropped even faster than it was pioneered. After taking a brightly lit four lane interstate off ramp, IA-64 pioneers have faced a road that turned into two lanes, then became twisty, graveled with under construction signs, numerous partial washouts, centered with grass and lastly two mud tracks lit with construction beacons terminating with a bridge with signs of McKinley Bridge and FUD river. The other side is shrouded in dense fog and what you can see of the bridge is strewn with gaping holes, rebar and lumber. Next to the bridge is a interstate on ramp signed x86-64 Hammer. It is well lit and looks just like what you left way back there going twice as fast or more. What do you think most pioneers will do? You guessed it, they will leave the IA-64 way in droves saying "they don't pay me enough for this sh--!" Great Post! Regards, Dan
