Chunum - Re: "Did everyone checkout the specs of Merced on INTEL's site, talk about support from OS vendors, almost runs any UNIX flavour and Win 64. This should be a huge success for them." Success will come, but it won't be overnight. Intel still has to get the first silicon and verify that it works and debug the "innards". Even when it is ready for shipment - in a year from now - the software "ramp" will be comparatively slow since the main focus will be on server and workstation applications. These applications will be SYSTEM oriented - largely invisible to the average PC user - but nevertheless very important. Paul
