Ten,

Good point. That last one the hardest for Americans to understand, I would think.

Ten, Itanium followers, Mike Magee got hold of a response by Compaq to Gartner's rather gloomy outlook for Compaq's conversion to Itanium, aka IPF. They are pretty far apart in their estimates for time and cost to convert. This is for the OpenVMS platform, currently on Alpha. Hope Compaq is more right than Gartner.

Edit: one piece of shipping schedule of the OpenVMS platform by Compaq, on Itanium:

Gartner assessment: What will be the target platforms for OpenVMS (e.g. Superdome/rp8400/L series, GS/ES/DS models, merged platform, other IPF systems based on Compaq Proliant, Blades, etc.)?

Compaq response: Current Alpha roadmap remains; OpenVMS will ship on the Itanium-based systems available in the 2003/2004 timeframe. Early porting & testing will be done on the ProLiant Itanium platform.

ProLiant has been the workhorse IA server line, 2 way to 8 way.
