Pravin, <Putting "extensions" on IA-32 to get to 64 bits in the big iron world is like putting new tires on a Pinto, you still own a Pinto.> Just like this Intel PR guy, I'm also a skeptic regarding AMD's 64-bit extensions to x86. Yet I have to wonder what the employees at Willamette-ville have to say about his comment right here. Wouldn't referring to IA-32 as a "Pinto" be somewhat belittling to everyone working on Willamette, Foster, and its proliferations? Tenchusatsu
