I just came across this thread when searching for some information. I am comfused by what you had said in it praetor. One this is "t'is cuz intel had their 64bit stuff up and running a lot sooner than amd. Is this really true
Yes and no. Between Intel and AMD it's true however as Cromewell points out in #33, if we include all processors its not true. What most people think of when they say "AMD came out with 64bit before Intel" is the consumer chips. Intel's Itanic lineup has been around for several years before AMD's K8 even began to breathe life.

As for the ressurection, shrug, oh well, it's not horrible as this thread serves a good purpse
