Yet another company dropping Itanium support

Few days, weeks, years ago, I started short series of my anti-Itanium blog entries.

I have to admit I was not very good future-visionary then, because after five years and two days, there are still companies who still only plan to drop Itanium support (RedHat) and there even are companies who do not even plan to do so 8) OMG who and why pays those people?

Old lessons...

More than three years ago, we were in Lyon, testing the taste of various different flavours of beer^H^H^H^Hpepsi, cola etc.

Today's newspaper contains an article (you can get the full copy of the article at their web) about Coca-Cola Blák's "success" I predicted three years ago. Interesting thing is, that people collect (even empty) bottles. Maybe CoCo's normal bottles are too boring.

And I did not drink coffee that time... Now I'm big lover of good coffee (with milk though). Morning cappuccino (I love Dulsao!) while reading daily magazines...

Other interesting thing is that for me, the various flavours of Pepsi are more tasty (is it really worth the Wikipedia page? ;-). I still remember Pepsi Gold.

Back to work and late newspaper reading ;-)
