Microsoft's Server 2003 is at Release Candidate RC2 and includes Enterprise Edition for 64-bit Itanium-based Systems RC1. microsoft.com CD costs US$3.95 and is good for 360 days. No, I guess I don't own as much of the stock as you. Best to put the price on ignore although the converts are below $7.37 conversion and might be back to par now. Harvey

DARBES, Re: Windows 64 for Hammer My understanding is that Misrosoft will release Windows .Net, or Windows 2003 Server if there is an OEM willing to sell these. This would be the server part. On the desktop, it will be part of Longhorn release, which will probably happen about a year from now. There is already a beta out, but I am not sure if it has Hamer binaries. The final version will definitely have Hammer support. My guess is that once a public RCx (Release Candidates) start to get released in 2H 2003, a lot of people will be running these and a lot of programs will get converted, especially some of the streaming apps, various conversion, encryption tools etc. for the desktop, and hopefully, at the same timeframe, the big apps such as the databases (DB2, SQL Server, Oracle) will be released for the server.
