Tony and thread:

Japanese Y2K inertia could put fabs as risk, Intel fears

But...
no hard evidence to predict disaster in the supply chain for critical parts and materials coming from Japan. Indeed, Intel has seen Japanese companies make great strides in addressing the millennium bug in recent weeks, he said. What's more, Intel believes there is still ample time to address any lingering problems.

Tony,

IF it flies better than any AMD CPU to date, 'til next year. Then you get Merced in your lap. Oof.

Assuming Merced actually happens, it will not be a generally viable solution for servers. The cost and power consumption will be too great. IA64 isn't going to do much until the second generation.
