I received a copy of this e-mail from HP on 64 bit from Intel. Shouldn't HP have done this a year ago with Opteron? Yes, they certainly should have.
Dear Partners ,

On Tuesday, February 17th, 2004, Intel Corporation announced plans to add 64-bit extensions to the Intel® Xeon(tm) processor family. HP will bring products to market that incorporate this new technology, broadening our workstation portfolio. What will this mean to your business? Let's get together and assess your needs to see which 64-bit computing option is best for your company. Attached is a document that may be of interest to you. Please contact me to set up a meeting.
Sincerely,
Sales Rep

From AMDZONE No less..... So it MUST be true, eh? Is it just me, or was that just a tinge of sour grapes I detected in ole Cris Tom's tone?
