I'm all for ECC, but honestly you can just buy Xeon E3 and cheap motherboards supporting it. I would also prefer that ECC is deployed everywhere (including on portable devices), but if it is not going to happen, I will just continue to buy chips that supports it (on markets where they exist...)
So what annoys me is not that Core i7 do not support ECC. What annoys me are markets where ECC does not exist at all, like ultra portable devices, and to a slightly lesser measure laptops (I've recently seen at least a workstation laptop featuring ECC, although the price was insane IIRC)
