Intel Pushes Out Dual-Core Itaniums, Or Does It?
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
To hear the top brass at Intel talk about it, everything is fine and dandy in Itanium land, and the fact that the dual-core "Montecito" Itanium processors have been pushed out to a volume ramp up in the first half of 2006 is not only not a problem, it has apparently been the plan all along.
