"that in addition to flat registers, he would use a fixed instruction length "

Windsock - Re: "Absolutely correct. McGrath also said, that in addition to flat registers, he would use a fixed instruction length -- another feature of IA-64. "

Exactamundo !!

By the way - how OLD was that presentation?

McGrath used the term Lightning Transport and mentioned RAMBUS memory as possible memory for the Sludge - as well as HIGH VILUME SMAPLINGin H1 02.

My guess is that presentation was 9 months old - or more.
