You mean AMD was trying to create an incompatible standard
when they developed x86-64 to compete with Itanium.

I guess Intel was trying to create a standard platform when Intel try to replace x86 with Itanium.

I don't know about replacing x86, Intel never had an IPF
processor on its roadmap suitable for PCs. However it
did want to replace five different and incompatible RISC
families in the server and workstation spaces in 1994
with IPF. In that sense it was indeed a standardization
effort.

BTW, three down, two to go.
