From my understanding, they are completely different
chips with different instruction sets. I seriously doubt the intel compiler will produce
x86-64 instructions. Not to mention the business perspective...

I know the Intel C++ compiler isn't free software (you
can get it free as in beer to compile open source
apps, though), but it's avail for Itanium.. I don't
know how well it works with AMD's stuff. It's my
compiler of choice.

But... guessing is but all we can do (i guess),
until gcc (or similar?)
supports this processor well...unless they already
do so(?)...
