Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD)

The flaw in your logic is that there is no 64-bit market. AMD has to create one by making the software available and having systems to sell. A big question is how well they can market this, given that many apps don't seem to get a performance boost from the 64-bit instructions.

How about by concentrating ont he apps that do get a performance boost. Or is that too obvious?

(Of course for those apps that don't, and they seem to be in the minority, people can run the 32 bit version, but perhaps I already mentioned that).
