Elmer, Re: Nothing can compare with its commercial integer or scientific floating-point SPECcpu2000 performance. " >>That's right, nothing can compare if you don't publish the scores. Problem is that despite their claim on their webpage they haven't published any SPEC scores. If we're comparing unpublished SPEC scores, I think Intel will have some pretty impressive numbers for McKinley next week and Northwood/Prestonia will be better as well. As it stands now, P4, with the smallest cache of any processor, posts the highest SPEC scores ever published. I realize you're the champion of Intel SPEC scores, but either way, IBM is solidly behind Itanium. With the Intel 870 chipset, what IBM is doing, and what HP/CPQ is doing, Itanium won't be lacking for infrastructure support. Tony
