Let's not get that confused with "immediate x86-64 support" as most people are prone to doing. Actually, why not? If most people are going to be confused and will make their buying decisions based on this incorrect understanding, won't it serve the purpose we are all looking for, which is that there will be a mad scramble to buy AMD chips? Isn't precisely this kind of mis-understanding holding up the P4? I love the x86-64 idea - even if it never actually gets used. I remember way back when they introduced MMX, I actually made a decision to spend more money and buy an MMX chip instead of the non-MMX version, thinking there is an outside chance that some great software requiring MMX will come out, and I will regret not paying the $100 extra for MMX. And I have degrees in Computer Engineering! Milan
