You will need an O/S that _runs_ on the 64 bit chip, but that is all you need. IE microsoft already has an Itanium version of XP. There are 64 bit versions of Linux. Sun's O/S is a hybrid for 64 bits. >The reason being AMD's new Opteron and Intel's >upcoming Tejas,(both a 64 Bit), are out in the Market place or soon to be >released. What effect or impact do You Fellows think that this new 64 Bit >technology is going to have on Chess Programming? Let Me hear from You.>>>>Mike Those are not true 64 bit processors. Supposedly 32 bit stuff runs just fine on them, but they have 64 bit extensions.
