The HP section on Yahoo <http://biz.yahoo.com/news/hwp.html> references an
article entitled, "Intel and Hewlett-Packard to Disclose Details of IA-64
Architecture." This begins:

        "Intel and Hewlett-Packard will for the first time disclose
         technical details of their collaboration to create their
         next-generation architecture, dubbed IA-64, at the
         Microprocessor Forum Oct. 13-16 in San Jose, Calif."

The part that confuses me is:

        "The conference keynote will be presented by Jerry Sanders,
         CEO of AMD, on 'A New World Order--Alternative Microsoft
         Windows Platforms.'"

What does this mean? New ways to run Windows, like the WindowsCE devices?
I thought Merced was supposed to bring a "New World Order," but I haven't
heard of AMD being invited to the party.
