I'm sorry Dave, but that was not OT! This is from the link I posted a few minutes ago..... biz.yahoo.com "The release of today's IA-64 architecture information is the result of the research and development effort between Intel and HP announced in 1994. The alliance is aimed at developing a 64-bit instruction set architecture for advanced workstation, server and enterprise-computing systems that protects customer software investments through compatibility with Intel's IA-32 processors and HP's PA-RISC processors. IA-64 provides the capabilities that the evolving Internet economy demands and will be able to meet the increasingly large memory and performance requirements of future data warehousing, e-business and other high performance server and workstation applications. ''IA-64 advances the high end of the Intel Architecture server and workstation roadmap to address the future demands that Internet and e-business applications will place on businesses in the next decade,'' said Albert Yu, senior vice president and general manager Intel's Microprocessor Products Group. ''Making the IA-64 architecture information publicly available now supports and accelerates the continued adoption of the IA-64 platform as we move closer to Merced production in 2000.'' ''IA-64 is the architecture which will meet the demands of high performance and interoperability, fueled by the next chapter of the Internet -- e-services,'' said Ann Livermore, president and chief executive officer of Enterprise Computing Solutions at HP. ''The IA-64 platform will help businesses and consumers make the shift from working the Web to making the Web work for them.''
