Constantine, Re: "I don't like your snotty remark"

And I don't like your subversion tactics to this argument. You said that you were putting on your "serious face", and then claimed that Itanium 2 would require "1 million programs" more to support (which you later admitted was an exaggeration).

Message 17602469

In other words, you either lied, or you were being facetious (and noticing the smiley, I guess it was the latter). Why? To get my goat? You like being snotty, too?

Re: "IA-64 is long ways from reaching critical mass. I just talked to my CIO and he is not even considering IA-64. He doesn't think it's any where near ready from prime time and he's one of the most technical minded cios out there."

Is this the same CIO you want to replace? If he's as smart as you say, then he would consider the option, and find out what kind of returns are possible on that kind of investment. I have never heard of any good CIO that is unwilling to consider options based on negative press, or on the whims of an assistant.
