If you want to study IA-64 architecture and instruction set, reference manuals may be not the best idea. You can try to buy some introduction book, e.g. http://www.shop-intel.com/shop/product.asp?pid=SIBK3501 Eugene On July 08, 2001 at 08:55:22, leonid wrote: >On July 08, 2001 at 00:37:11, Eugene Nalimov wrote: > >>On July 07, 2001 at 21:48:14, leonid wrote: >> >>>On July 07, 2001 at 16:03:01, Eugene Nalimov wrote: >>> >>>>On July 07, 2001 at 15:28:00, leonid wrote: >>>> >>>>>On July 06, 2001 at 20:43:05, Dann Corbit wrote: >>>>> >>>>>>On July 06, 2001 at 20:34:59, leonid wrote: >>>>>> >>>>>>>Hello! >>>>>>> >>>>>>>Recently somebody said that later this year we can expect Intel's 64 bits.
