Should such a scenario take place, AMD would no longer be authorized to produce any x86 processors, and Intel would no longer be authorized to produce x86-64 processors, forcing them back to the now-obsolete 32-bit x86 architecture. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64 I would think AMD are safe for now. |
I hope so. Intel should actually be focusing on Nvidia. For whatever stupid reason they're trying to create a x86 CPU without any licence at all. (afaik)
