Ahh, I didn't know that about the "x86_64" term.
I would say it is a better name than amd64, though. Maybe I'll have to
start saying something like "x86_64 thanks to AMD".
Red Hat refers to it as x86_64.
Sun calls it x64 (but Sun is just... in its own little world.)
Intel's marketing name for it is EMT64 (for Expanded Memory
Technology, 64-bit, or something equally lame.)
