AMD recently dropped the "64" from the name of Athlon CPUs. All the "new" Athlons since ca. 2004 have been 64-bit capable (as long as they are for socket 754/940/939/M2). This does not cover the original Athlon for use with Slot A and Socket A motherboards. HTH, Sami This message posted from opensolaris.org
