***Big News*** Intel's Itanium chips have hit the $14 billion in revenue

BUT THIS STUFF IS INCREDIBLE, IT'S EXACTLY AS IDC HAD PREDICTED ALL ALONG!!
That's an amazing 5,665 server units, this past quarter!!!

Hmm, I'll take the $.6B. (don't you just love accountants?)

PS- Oh, and btw, if you're interested (and frankly, I can't see why anyone
would be), Opterons sold 60,000 server units, or something or another,
blah-blah-blah.

AMDroid!

Now back to Itanium! HULK SMASH! HULK SMASH! Yeah!

What? They're scrapping the Itanic? Come on! "Damned the ice-bergs,
full speed ahead!" ....more horses!
