Building on the broad support and remarkable value of the IA-32 server platform, IA-64 is positioned to help your business excel at the hard work of e-Business. A native 64-bit version of Microsoft Windows 2000 is being developed for IA-64. Through the deployment of worldwide Application Solution Centers (ASCs) of which Compaq has one in Littleton, MA, - Intel is helping improve the development efforts of hardware and software vendors. These ASCs provide vendors with an opportunity to port, test and tune their software in a state-of-the-art environment. These managed facilities ensure timely and effective joint development of advanced solutions for the IA-64 platform. 15
