Second of all, I’m not trying to spite Microsoft at all. “I would rather wait for the initial announcement than just assume something to spite Microsoft.”įirst of all, this link is the most official reference we have which encompases “ Windows XP 64-Bit Edition”… as it appears all-encompassing. “Microsoft has made no official announcement about which features they plan to support?”īecause the aforementioned link has been shown to be relatively all-encompassing, its safe to assume (assuming that this list could change over time though) that these are the features (or better said… lack of features) to expect from AMD64. AMD64 runs 32bit code (supposedly without a performace penalty unlike IA64). The key word is *different*… not less dificult and not more developer-friendly. “the technical difficulties involved in portinig are totally different (porting to a totally new platform is different than porting to the same platform with some 64-bit extensions)” “how many people with Itanium workstations need WMP as a must-have feature?”
