Subject: A day in history
Today at 3pm we received the first AMD64 K8 based hardware system from AMD.
Today at 5pm we booted and are running the 64-bit versions of Windows XP on the AMD64 K8 system.
We are even running 32-bit apps under wow64!
The hardware system is unbelievably solid for a chip that just popped out of the oven a mere month ago.
In addition to running the 64-bit system we can dual boot into the 32-bit version of XP as well on the very same hardware without any changes!
Thanks are due to a great many people for their help and support in making this happen.
