Windsock, >Re:"THE PORT OF VMS to the Itanium platform is moving quickly" >>At the same time Compaq is spending no time on a VMS port to the Hamster. The only work on a Hamster OS is proceeding... strange, there is no work being done on a Hamster OS. Pretty hard to port an OS to foils or undebugged Silicon. Compaq's been working with Itanium for quite a while: an earlier effort in 97 - 98 or so that was put on hold since Merced didn't look so hot (but the work was archived); full bore since about last May when the big Alpha - Itanium switch was made.
