Doug, Re: This is great news for AMD.

Or bad news, if IPF ends up winning in industry adoption. Fundamentally, it's the better 64-bit architecture, by far and away. The only thing against it is 32-bit performance, but that will soon be remedied by the IA-32 EL, and eventually be made irrelevant by Intel's push towards 64-bit software.
