Gary,

RE: Does that mean there is actually '3' core in Merced ?

Don't know, ask Paul - I believe it's something like RISC core with x86 attached, some call it a translator, but I think that's incorrect - I thought the x86 was a real core.

Here's a link you and other "AMD will make workstations" fans should read very closely.

HP workstations based on the IA-64 architecture will enable system-level binary compatibility with
existing PA-RISC and Windows NT®-based application software. This compatibility will permit
independent software vendors (ISVs) and customers to seamlessly run existing software without
modification. In such key markets as mechanical computer-aided design (MCAD), electronic design
automation (EDA), financial services and software development, a smooth application transition means
reduced time to market and greater cost savings.
