AMD64 Architecture Achieves Significant Milestone—More Than 1,000 OEMs And Software And Hardware Developers Respond To Customer Demand For AMD64 Processors
Sunnyvale, Calif. -- 2004 년 2 월 11 일 --AMD (NYSE:AMD) announced that more than 1,000 software and hardware developers, OEMs, systems builders and end users have recognized the benefits of AMD64 architecture—an industry-standard approach to 64-bit computing that delivers simultaneous 32-bit and 64-bit performance.
“Innovating for the customer is what AMD envisioned when forging the path to 64-bit computing,” said Marty Seyer, vice president and general manager of AMD’s Microprocessor Business Unit. “This groundswell of support reflects the growing demand for AMD64 technology, which offers leading-edge 32-bit performance and an easy migration path to 64-bit computing.”
“Customer response has been very positive to Microsoft’s recently launched Customer Preview Programs for 64-Bit Extended Systems for both Windows Server® and Windows XP,” said Bob Kelly, general manager, Windows Server Business Group, Microsoft Corp. “AMD’s role in developing customer-centric technology that enables increased performance and scalability with 64-bit processing, while at the same time giving customers a smooth transition path from 32- to 64-bit applications, brings investment protection to a new height.”
Recent OEMs who have joined or announced additional support for AMD64 products include Acer, eMachines, Fujitsu, Fujitsu Siemens, HP, IBM, NEC-CI and Sun. Some of the key customers choosing AMD64 computing solutions based on either AMD Opteron™ or AMD Athlon™ 64 processor include AIST, the Central Intelligence Agency, DaimlerChrysler, Ducati Corse, Ferrari, Los Alamos National Labs, the National Security Agency, Rhythm & Hues, Sandia National Labs and Weather.com, among others.
