Not only does it taste bad, but the portions are so small


Intel's AMD64 Sucks?. AMD Zone Apr 4 2004 5:55PM GMT [Moreover - moreover...]

The fanboys that complained about how Intel's 64-bit was identical to AMD's 64 bit  now say that it performs badly and go off on some tangent about "emulation". What they fail to mention is that EVERY x86 processor on the market emulates x86 anyway. Accusing Intel's 64-bit of being emulated is like accusing water of being wet.

I can't read German, so I don't actually know if the original c't article quotes actual perfromance metrics. Certainly I haven't seen anyone who points to the article quote any numbers, so no one can comment on the numbers.
