One example is www.aceshardware.com Thanks! I see the next 64 bits chess programming as very important and the most interesting event in the next few years. Disgracefuly in never come! I hope that AMD will push 64 CPU arrival for all of us. Now I see that there are no more reason for me to wait for 64 bits any more. Will buy my next computer for Linux without any more waiting. It is likely that 64 bits chip will have more readily available Linux system that Windows one. Leonid.
