Re: [Trisquel-users] choose trisquel_4.5.1_amd64.iso for Intel microprossesors [SOLVED]

Intel moved its own way at 64 Bit Processors. The Itanium (sometimes called  
Itanic). Problem of it was that the 32Bit speed of Itanium was very slow.  
Intel refused to use AMD64 (a extension of x86) for quite a while till MS  
stated that there will be only one Win64 version. Intel then integrated their  
own Intel-64 extensions into their Netburst Architecture. Most parts of the  
Extensions are Compatible, only a few are missing or altered.
