I noticed at the book store yesterday, the current price of an Athlon 64
bit 3.4 GHz
CPU was just $400. 64 BIT!! Jeeeezzzzzzuuusss.
A 32 bit 3.4 GHz CPU is only $200

[Blunderov] Not that I know much about these matters myself, but in
chess programming circles they are apparently unexcited about the 64 bit
chip; opinion seems to be that the 64 bit architecture is more useful
for server applications than productive of actual computing power for
the end user.
