Fyo, Re: "AMD to say that the 64bit Windows version they would be demonstrating tomorrow was .NET"

For demonstration purposes, AMD would obviously use the current generation of Windows. Intel did the same thing with Itanium, first demoing the system with a 64-bit version of Windows 2000, which was never released. As for production of a Windows 64, it might not be ready for any kind of XP or .NET launch that Microsoft is planning in the future, so it may be pushed out to align with the 2003 generation of Windows. Remember that Microsoft is still running the show here, and they will do what benefits Microsoft, not what benefits x86-64 or AMD.
