I know it's the enquirer so has there been any other reports?

It's a McKinley, very different architecture. This is Intel's next generation IA64 chip, the successor to the Itanium.

Quote from first page:

"This diagram shows the Intel block layout for the 5GHz processor.
This processor, note, is a 32-bit chip - it's a different presentation from the McKinley that we detailed above"

If it's 32bit, how can it be McKinley?

Good question. Apparently somebody doesn't know what they're talking about. I just hope it's not me :tongue:
