That's interesting...

Interesting... Someone will need to run a bunch of buffer-overflow attacks against one of these machines, and see just how well it does. If it's as good as AMD says it is, this could change a lot in a few years once A64s are more prevaliant.

Cool. I wish MS would get on the ball here...64 bit windows would be sweet.

It also works with windows XP SP 2 (two)

Great! I'm trying to convince myself to purchase a 64-bit CPU, and this is another good reason. Thanks AMD!
