IA-64 was Intel's 64-bit architecture.
IA-64 is one of Intel's architectures.
EM64T is Intel's attempt to make AMD64
compatible processors.
EM64T is another of Intels 64bit architectures. Happens to be
(mostly) compatible with AMD 64 bit but it is Intel's. Intel may
have been inspired (read copied) AMDs, but AMD's is called something
else. "is" as in "belongs to", not as in "developed by". AMD calls
theirs something different and I believe the opcode mnemonics are
different.
