Bill, Re: "Intel is also taking abig risk, look at IBM and the microchannel! Remember all the companies who jumped on that band wagon and died with it."

AMD is taking just as big of a risk with x86-64. Without support from that, Hammer is just a glorified 32-bit desktop chip. One might also remember AMD's history of other instruction sets, and how successful they were in implementing those. 3DNow, anyone?
