Hi James
Correct in the mainframe / large server arena of the two systems you
mentioned, but between AMD and Intel (desktop / local server) of which
the majority of users know, AMD was the first, and the Itanium was
factually only in 2004, as I stated with AMD in 2003. You can Google it
for factualness, from AMD/Intel archives, techblogs, Wikipedia etc.
Intel had the concept for 64bit, IA64, as far back as 1999, but did not
get to market with it before AMD.

Actually, I believe both the PowerPC and DEC Alpha were earlier.
I think the Intel Itanium also predated the AMD.
