Then how do you explain the popularity of user-mode linux on x86?
The reason I continue to use Ski is because it's one of the very few
simulators out there that are (a) architecturally extremely accurate,
(b) fast, and (c) very easy to setup & use. Ski is an asset for ia64
linux, not a weakness.
(And no, just because we have Ski doesn't mean we don't use real
hardware. Nothing could be further from the truth.)
