Joe, <If there is a need for more, Athlon supports 43 bit address.> Xeon already supports a 36-bit address bus, meaning it has a 64 GB address space. How the extra 4 bits are supported, I'm not exactly sure, but I guess it's kind of a hokey way. (Address segmentation, anyone?) I'd also guess that Athlon's 43-bit address space is also implemented in a hokey way, which is why real 64-bit processing is necessary (either IA-64 or x86-64). Tenchusatsu
