Some Thoughts on the Current State of 64-bit ComputingSome Thoughts on the Current State of 64-bit ComputingPosted Feb 19, 2005 0:41 UTC (Sat) by giraffedata (subscriber, #1954)In reply to: Some Thoughts on the Current State of 64-bit Computing by arafel Parent article: Some Thoughts on the Current State of 64-bit Computing Is it just me, or are there some contradictions in that? There's no contradiction. The first statement compares 64 bit CPUs and 32 bit CPUs (actually, with context, x86-64 and x86) and the second statement compares 64 bit operating systems and 32 bit operating systems. It implies that an x86-64 with 32 bit Linux is substantially better than x86 with 32 bit Linux, while x86-64 with 64 bit Linux is not better than x86-64 with 32 bit Linux.
