combjelly,

re: While I will grant you that Compaq has, and HP might have, although they have backed away from plans to transition to Itanium before, are you certain that IBM has announced they will kill their Power series in favor of Itanium?



Perhaps the most accurate choice of words would be "significantly scaled back". Which means, if IA64 sells we'll drop our internally developed CPU. They all maintain a backup plan, just in case the chip doesn't sell.
