Offering the feature too early, he said and "you end up spending more money for a feature you don't need to use." Dsperate damage control? first theres no need for 64 bit and now its coming in 2 years. had everybody believed intel we wouldn't get any 64bit - they dont like innovations and development costs, aka competition (M$ and DLL HELL anyone) Maybe AThlon64 users (the FX and 939 socket ones) get nice small apps to test out like a 64bit lame encoder: http://www.anandtech.com/cpu/showdoc.html?i=1884&p=17 And will carve the way for 64bit and get some fun while at it. Instead of posting links to useless hype why not get some common sence out there? Would that be a good newspost?
