Joe, <But it takes just a handful of apps to make the demand for x86-64 machines explode. SQL Server and Quake.>

Funny how the same handful of apps (Quake and SQL Server) means absolutely nothing to the AMDroids who continue to ridicule Pentium 4 performance.

Think about it. Those who criticize Pentium 4 because it shines only on optimized apps are also hypocritically praising x86-64 despite the fact that it not only needs recompiled apps (to show full performance), but also a new OS. Without the two, x86-64 remains a marketing bullet, and Clawhammer's success will ride only on its performance on 32-bit "legacy" apps.

By the way, you have no idea how scalable Northwood will be.
