Jim, Re: "Why can't Intel promote both x86-64 and IA-64 at the same time?"

Good question. Looks like the AMDroids missed this possibility.

RE: It's pretty obvious whats going to happen...Intel "might" have a team working on x86-64 right now, cough. This will be kept unofficial with the hope that somehow IA-64 gets going. If need be they will unveil x86-64 and a last resort.


Jim, "If need be"? I don't think it's any longer "if". It's "when" and "how".

In all cases it's bad for Intel. The Itanic won't be going anywhere.

Just my 2c.

It would not make much sense: they both go after the same market. If they weren't Intel would have no problem with AMD X86-64.
