Intel is a King , of the old fashioned powerful type, not today's constitutional monarchs It looked like a gorilla because AMD was so weak and unable to execute well.

A lot of brand new applications demanding the supposed speed of 64 bit will have to appear for it to form full tornado with a mass market. With my newer 32 bit computers I find that I seldom have to spend more than a few seconds waiting ., As computers become a commodity, competition inevitably revolves around price . I perceive 2 possible markets - a 32bit mass commodity market and a 64bit technology that might be able to ignite bowling alleys and niches but have little chance at a true mass market tornado at the consumer level because the space is full.There may be more opportunities at the business level.
