- booi 4y agoItanium didn't work but not only because of hardware. They didn't invest nearly enough in developer relations, compiler tech, contributions to other compilers and working with Microsoft to ensure a good landing spot for their tech. That and huge die sizes which in turn resulted in high prices just didn't make it competitive considering all the other stuff.
