Executives at Intel disagree, seeing 64-bit computing as largely a server technology in the short term. With just 5 percent of servers using 64-bit addressability, there is little need today on the desktop, says George Alfs, Intel spokesperson, adding that with out software and other tools to make it work at its best, 64 bits doesn t mean much.

　　MicroDesign Resources s Krewell sees Intel s resistance to 64 bits for the desktop as a move to protect its sizeable investment in its 64-bit Itanium CPU, designed for servers and workstations.

　　Meanwhile, with Athlon 64 , AMD has reignited the chip wars. That s always good news for users, says MDR s Krewell.
