Red Hat Pulls Plug on Itanium Support with RHEL 6

"If you run Itanium-based servers in your data center, 2010 has a surprise for you. The dominant supplier of commercial Linux, Red Hat, is not going to be supporting its future Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 on any Itanium platforms, old or new."

Red Hat feeling the pain of supporting so many configurations?

They're supporting RHEL 5 Itanium setups till 2017 though!:p

Itanium has never had the sales intel and HP thought it would, this is more about the arch than about Red Hat
 
I know so it is exactly that, RHEL 5 only.

Agreed sales per not quite those that were hoped for :cool:
