What a common sense idea, which PERSISTENTLY escaped Intel
``Letting a computer run software written for another type has sometimes helped during technology transitions, such as Apple's switch from 68000-series Motorola processors to PowerPC models. But generally, the lackluster performance has kept its use to a narrow niche.''

when they wanted to launch their Itanium-2 !!!!!! Geee, what was Intel thinking ? ``Here is our h/w that is incompatible with the tons of existing s/w and we give you NO help to transition it ... . Yes indeedee we have a GOOD plan.... ''

no common sense => tons of trouble....
