"64-bit computing is going to revolutionize
what we do. We have huge problems of dealing with massive amounts of information
and accessing that information, and also using that technology to empower
people at home. A lot of places, like research institutions, can afford
huge crunchers, and can afford tremendous investment in their technology
through their work, but the average person cannot. And what 64-bit technology's
going to do is to bring it home to people and empower them to do things
that they couldn't do right now." more...

"Bringing 64-bit enabled technologies to the
mass market will allow small businesses to harness a higher level of computing
power that has, until now, been out of their reach. Previously, only big
companies in select industries could afford -- and therefore, be more
competitive -- with 64-bit based systems. The affordable availability
of the power of 64-bit based systems to small businesses is just another
reason why I say this is, and will continue to be, the Century Of The
Entrepreneur." |

"We're clearly getting to that point at which 4 gigabytes of addressable
memory is not enough. If you think about the video industry, it takes
about a gigabyte just to store a minute of video, so if you're doing three
or four streams of video, that's many, many gigabytes a minute or per
second, and so having that increased addressable memory is a huge benefit
to us and our customers." more...

"It's not technology that drives markets, it is applications. And
a lot of what's been talked about here really is the technology, and the
fact is the price point and a very profound application really drove the
PC business for years."

Sandia National Laboratories
“64-bit computing
has long been the standard mode for many high performance computing applications,
but also having the ability to run the body of codes that perform well in
single-precision, 32-bit mode is a major advantage. This flexibility built
into the AMD Opteron™ processor was a crucial advantage over alternatives
available in the market today.” more...

Gregoire
Previsualization Effects Supervisor,
JAK Films
"Pre-visualization is the art of visual story telling, and it’s
my department’s responsibility to make sure that George Lucas’
ideas get translated so that he knows whether or not his ideas are actually
working in a digital sense, in a movie sense. He can take the movies that
we create for him early in the process and use them to maintain a higher
level of creative control over the entire production process. That way..."

"Sandia will be able to run 64- and 32-bit applications on the
AMD Opteron™ processors right away. That means they can run 99% of
the existing code with just a recompile, and converting 32-bit applications
to 64-bit mode won't require a heroic effort." |
