>You have it reverse. P6 is 64 & 486 is 32. Wrong Answer! 486, P5 & P6 are all 32bit MPU. There are two things that you can talk about when you talk about 64bit vs 32bit. One is the interface to the CPU, and the other is the size of the registers used in the CPU. The first line is talking about the interface, and is correct. The second one is talking about the CPU registers, and it is correct. I don't know if these people knew which they were talking about, or which the other was talking about, but this is the only way for both to be correct. Terje
