I knew there were IA64 versions of Windows Server 2003/2008/2008R2 and there was an X64 version of XP but I didn’t realize there was also an IA64 version of XP.

I knew there were IA64 versions of Windows Server 2003/2008/2008R2 and there was an X64 version of XP but I didn’t realize there was also an IA64 version of XP. TIL. I once had an IA64 workstation that I used for testing a product I was working on with that platform and I can’t recall having anything good to say about it. The workstation itself was big, loud, and ugly. Windows didn’t run all that great and there were constant compat issues. Good riddance.
