Weer een posting van The Register: Intel heeft de eerste werkende samples van de Merced gebakken. Onze grote vriend uit Redmond krijgt Win64 echter nog niet aan de praat, dit terwijl Linux al wel draait:
Reliable sources close to Intel's plans say that the company has produced first silicon samples of the processor in its fabrication plants. But while the news may be good for Intel, Microsoft is already gnashing its teeth.Because the Linux operating system is already running on the silicon while Microsoft's Win64 software won't. Microsoft Redmond has drafted in armies of developers in an attempt to sort out the embarrassing fact, the sources said.
