Joe, Re: "How do you judge these things? By the press releases? Sometimes the press releases don't tell you the whole story. Like when Dell transitioned their workstation line from Itanium back to x86, there was no press release." Dell dropped the workstation line for very good reasons. But if that gives you the impression that all press releases are suspect, I think you are taking it a bit too far. There have been countless press releases pledging support for Itanium. Every once in a while, someone is bound to reconsider, but that is the exception, not the rule. And I think it's especially ironic that you choose to be skeptical all the Itanium press releases from reliable news sources like Reuters and news.com, and yet you believe Yamhill rumors from the Inquirer. wbmw
