Ten, Re: Win, I'm pretty sure that McKinley and Madison will be here sooner. ;-) Pretty sure that arrow at the top of the Compaq roadmap that says Itanium TM Systems is just that, systems from Compaq available for shipment based on McKinley, and then Madison. I think they are Industry Standard Systems, or ProLiant servers, extensions to the current Xeon line, and are there just to give some reference for the rest of the roadmap, which is Tru64 DS, ES and GS servers. As Magee points out, the non-Stop Himalayas aren't on there, but they also cut over to Itanium family, I think a bit later. So, you're right, the Itanium chips themselves need to be ready well in advance of those server FCS dates. Better point out that that roadmap was done probably as early as May this year, and milestone dates do tend to move. However, Ten, you don't get to move any milestone dates unless you make them earlier. ;-) Tony
