Keith, Re: The trends are pretty clear at this point.
Look for Itanium architecture to reverse that trend. The others were aging and quickly becoming obsolete. IBM is doing well with Power, but not enough to grow a market as all the other architectures lose ground. So it's not surprising that the market is shrinking.
You might believe that x86 is conquering RISC by pure virtue, but I think RISC failed to keep up with the R&D being put into x86. Itanium is different. Intel puts more R&D into it than any other RISC vendor (including IBM). It won't take long for returns to become fairly obvious.
