- jabl 5y agoYes, but the massive economies of scale in chip manufacturing and software compatibility would most likely have doomed Alpha and PA-RISC in any case.
- mrweasel 5y agoI don’t know if it’s true, but a story I was told by an HP engineer claims that Itanium was more or less designed by HP. Which would mean that HP wanted to kill off the PA-RISC platform.
