I'll say!

Some official places to look at (Intel's site has nothing yet):

http://www.digital.com/flash/ Synopsis
http://www.digital.com/flash/intelpr.html Press Release
http://www.digital.com/welcome.html Palmer's Spin On It

I'm still not quite sure how they reconcile "fully committed to delivering the
leadership x86 products" with "prohibit Intel from using Digital's patented
technology in its present and future microprocessor products", though. Unless
they're switching to K6s exclusively.

Cheers,
