wbmw, on x86/AMD64 as dominant computer architecture

Thanks for your reply. I think you're mainly talking about chipset issues though.

What really intrigues me is that I made what might be considered a totally outrageous claim and nobody except you seems to be prepared to dispute it.

Perhaps a poll is in order! Let's try this, who agrees or disagrees with this (further outrageous) statement?

The race for the dominant computer architecture is over. With AMD64, the x86 line has won. It's done, done, done and AMD64 is the ultimate winner!

Once again, the rationale being that AMD64 offers everything that 99% of the market needs and is backed by manufacturing and development amortized over such huge volumes that no other architecture can ever catch up.
