Okay that's a bit heavy on the retcon, don't you think?
- r00fus 3y agoWhy? Because it's really just AMD-64?
- dathinab 3y agoprobably but also it's a stretch in general as for personal computers arm is the dominant platform since years (there are way more phones, tablets, etc. then x86 laptops/desktops by now, all of which fit the original definition of personal computer)
- epylar 3y agoIt's saying that the 64-bit mode became dominant over other Intel modes.
- kevin_thibedeau 3y ago"Intel Architecture 64" is Itanium. Calling x64 "Intel 64 Architecture" is like MS trying to steal the thunder of Open Office ODF with OOXML.
