wbmw, re processors other than x86

I believe the amount of money that can be made selling processors other than x86 will begin to grow at some point over the next few years.

I have only one question for this: why? What possible advantage is there for a consumer or business to buy anything other than an x64 processor now that AMD64 is available?

Perhaps I'll state my belief boldly enough so that you can fire directly at it: AMD64 brings the x86 architecture to the point where it can satisfy 99% of requirements. With the volume advantage enjoyed by x86 producers, any other architecture is going to find itself fighting for scraps.

[This assumes we'll disregard embedded processors.]
