Eric, When do you expect Microsoft to announce Sledgehammer 64 bit support, or should folks just run in 32 bit mode? AMDs invasion the high end server category is a very long shot. If they succeed, it will add 20 to 40 points to the stock. But AMD can prosper without it. And speaking of Sledgehammer, it will not die without a native 64bit OS, since it will be able to run existing software just fine (and very fast). A 64 bit Windows OS is just an icing on the cake. Joe
