I thought id pos tup this article from the Inq:

<A HREF="http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=16186" target="_new">http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=16186</A>

its pretty funny if its real, which i could believe its true, why would they post something this false lol.

maybe ms is mad at intel for some reason lol, or iAMD64 really is the better of the two. I could buy that since the original is always better then the copy lol.

truth is we wont know till we see them head to head.

I have heard EM64T is a no go. Prescotts have it and Intel said it could be turned on but rumor says it’s a no go. Time will tell.

If I glanced at a spilt box of tooth picks on the floor, could I tell you how many are in the pile. Not a chance, But then again I don't have to buy my underware at Kmart.

A good read indeed, and it seems to send a message even though its kinda vague. I wonder what Intel 'left out' that AMD did implement.. and how long its going to take them to add/fix it.

They probably just implemented it slower... w/o 64bit ALUs
