Joe, Re: "You are probably aware of that the type of applications that we will be seeing more of (.NET/CLR, Java) are the types of apps that run badly on P4, well on Athlon and Piii. And these apps will be the biggest nail in the coffin of Itanium, since the performance will be horrible." LOL, Joe, you deserve the Unobservance Award today, for missing the point of my post, which was that the newly released VTune Performance Analyzer, compatible with the Pentium 4 and Itanium processors, will have "features that make application performance tuning easier and more efficient for Microsoft Visual Studio(1) .NET(1) developers so that their applications can run at the highest levels of performance on Intel-based platforms." Intel is actually getting out the tools now so that development on .NET and other technologies will already be optimized to avoid the pitfalls of Netburst micro-architecture. As for IA-64, I have no idea why you are downplaying in advance the performance on these applications. As far as I know with the architecture, .NET type applications should run fantastically well on IA-64 (and even better when optimized with VTune). wbmw
