Joe, Re: < No it does not. But it is an admission that Intel is considering the possibility of Plan A failing, and the existence of Plan B make it more likely that Plan A will fail.> Mmmm, No. Plan A's not going to fail. I give it a > 90% chance of success(as defined as profitable in 5 years), even in the presence of X86-64. And I HATE the idea of IA-64 & think it's the wrong way to go. X86-64 looks to me like it's less likely to be around in 2020 than IA-64. But I'll bet there'll be a lot more X86-64 computers around 2 years from now than there are IA-64s. tgptndr
