AMD did well not to communicate Opteron as an Itanium killer.
But considering K8 is still in its early juvenile stage clockspeedwise and considering there is a lot of headroom in FP to be realized from next week going forward I would be surprised if Opterons will not in fact be closer to Itanium than to Xeon performancewise at this year's end already.

As for "owning the computing world right now": Naah...
Its a lot more than financials alone. I dont see any evidence at all a K8 Desktop-product is manufacturable in volume (of some millions per quarter)- at least not at the current node.
And next node's product is still a year away from today.
