Intel (Intel) and Microsoft (Microsoft) pointed out that ITANIUM wafers are scheduled to be shipped in the first half of next year, but the new version of the window software for the wafer is to wait until the second half of the year. On the other hand, the Linux version of the company, which is launched by companies such as Red Hat, Turbolinux, and Caldera Systems, is scheduled to be admitted to ITANIUM wafers. Microsoft launched a slow operation of the window version of the operation system, and the harm of the reputation may be greater than the financial. Robert Frances Group analyst Cal Braunstein said: "Maybe from marketing point of view, Microsoft can promote them with amazing powerful features, but these functions are actually used." At present, corporate customers are considering The cost of converting to the window 2000 system is headache, but the upgrade operating system is simply a small witch than the transfer to another new wafer.

In September, Ballmer received access to the CNET News Zone, the window version will be listed in sync with the wafer. Itanium wafers Although the listing time is more than expected, it is still an important wafer in the future of Intel.

Because Microsoft's progress is slow, there is naturally made many Linux organic.
