Milo,

thank you for the link! Interesting article! Just a few questions:

This is a quote from the article: "Basically, the changes go a long way to making the instruction set more orthogonal; and the larger register files allow far greater opportunities for code optimization by the compiler writers."

Who will write compilers for X86-64 when Compaq is gone? Will Microsoft do it?

Will Microsoft still support x86-64 now that AMD's most important potential customer went all Intel?

Peter
