....THE X86-64 mailing list indicate that Nvidia has yet to make 64-bit source code available for its products for the Hammer, though there's little doubt that the graphics company will release it, sooner or later.
A note from Marco Ippolito, who works for Multigen, an AMD partner, also indicates that full speed, unlocked Hammers are also in the wild....


The rest is at: theinquirer.net

Six months after it was released, Athlon didn't have as much software and hardware support as Hammer has now. A year and a half after its release, Itanium hasn't a fraction as much hardware support (in motherboards and chipsets) and barely any more software support.

Most intriguing (to me) are the heatsink fan combos speced with 16cfm fans - SOI must be working out much better than anyone expected.
