n. The Intel Itanium, so called in reference to the legendary disaster that
|
|
|
|
|
was the Titanic. This term bubbled up in several places on the Internet in
|
|
|
|
|
1999 when it was beginning to become clear that the Itanium was turning into
|
|
|
|
|
the most expensive and protracted flop in the history of the semiconductor
|
|
|
|
|
industry.
