If I Had a Hammer

adpowers writes: "Anandtech is running an article about their preview of AMD's Hammer. They had one machine running 32-bit Windows and the other running 64-bit Linux. The Linux machine had a 32 bit program and an identical program that was compiled for 64-bit processor support. Both processors were less than 30 days old and running without any crashes, but they weren't at full speed." We did one Hammer story a day or two ago, but there have been several more posted since then (wild guess: the NDA expired). Tom's Hardware has a story, so does Gamespot.

    64 bits should be enough for anyone.

    No really, I mean it.

    Actually I think I would prefer the permissions to be 777, or at least 770 if I was lucky enough to be a part of the earth group. Since I really don't think I'm the user. :)
