Intel: x86 won't encroach on Itanium
We all know that Intel's goal is to provide a high-end processor for as many server makers as possible. Even with IBM's departure, Intel still has Itanium partnerships with Fujitsu, Hitachi, HP, NEC, Silicon Graphics Inc. and Unisys. With x86 soon coming and Itanium CPU's in question CNET has a nice little three page article on the subject.
"Obviously, the Itanium ramp is more difficult than we forecasted when we started," Gelsinger said. And Intel might not have made the same decisions had it thought more carefully about the Itanium challenge, he said. "Introducing a new architecture is very hard. Had we laid out the business plan and really saw how long it took to get there, management and the board of directors might have made different decisions," Gelsinger said."
