Had AMD not come out with AMD64, and Itanium would eventually prevail, as there was no other alternative coming from Intel.
- chrchr 3mo agoI vividly remember the months after AMD64 came out when tech companies were dumping their specialty RISC server hardware (mostly Sun, but some other stuff too) and replacing them with commodity AMD boxes. It was felt like a monumental shift.
- saati 3mo agoIt wouldn't, performance was horrible.
- pjmlp 3mo agoYes it would, when the only way is to press forward, eventually something has to improve.
