John, I don't know if this is of any relevance, but if a public announcement is ever made it could be big for AMD. Out of curiosity I e-mailed Microsoft to see what they had to say about supporting Sledgehammer with x86-64 extensions. Here is a copy of the e-mail: --- Original Message --- From: eplace@cnetco.com To: microsoftcom_contactus@css.one.microsoft.com Sent: Sat Feb 10 16:15:58 PST 2001 Subject: Microsoft.Com ContactUs User selected feedback type: Product, General Comments Product: Windows NT Workstation 4.0 User country: United States Language ID: en User browser: Mozilla/4.72 [en] (Win98; I) User Comment: I would just like to know if Microsoft is planning to support AMD's future Sledgehammer processor with x86-64 extensions.
