AMD is now armed with "Hammers", to attack Intel with their Opteron. The NEW AMD Opteron? Processor is positioned as the bridge between the 32-bit computing of today, and the advanced processing of 64-bit computing of the future. Opteron is a very smart move on AMD's part. Although there are still many questions that remain to be answered about the product. We'll look at some of the plus points and negatives, and also bring you pictures of the first demonstration Opteron system from AMD. The world?s highest performing 2P and 4P servers are now powered by AMD Opteron? processors. AMD Opteron processors deliver unsurpassed 32-bit performance today and enable you to transition to 64-bit computing at your own pace.

Opteron is already available in two- and four-processor servers now shipping. And users will have their pick of 64-bit operating systems. Microsoft committed to a 64-bit edition of Windows Server 2003, Red Hat voiced its support, SuSE and Mandrake are already shipping commercial Linux for Opteron, and Sun Microsystems has announced plans to build an Opteron version of Solaris. IBM perhaps made the biggest splash with a dual commitment: The leading Linux database, DB2, is now available as a 64-bit downloadable beta for Opteron.
