Ah, I stand corrected. So the first true 64-bit processor was released in '91 according to Wiki. Good deal. Guess we both learned something today, huh?

Oh, and unless I missed something it's not the mid 90's, so your post wasn't correct.  Maybe you couldn't just walk into a store and pick one up, but 64-bit processors have clearly been around more than the 3-4 years you're claiming since they could be had in servers and workstations some 15-20 years ago.  Hell, I'm pretty sure the first Athlon 64 came out more than 4 years ago...
