If this new Intel CPU is succeful, is it easier to port AmigaOS 4 to the new Intel CPU?
From ServerPipeline.com:
"Intel Corp. has opted to work with Transitive Corp., a pioneer of processor virtualization and emulation technology, to allow software code originally written for RISC processors to operate on the Itanium 2 and Xeon processors, Transitive said Tuesday (March 7, 2006). The deal, despite being non-exclusive, is being presented as a booster for the Itanium community and as an attempt by Intel to fight back against rival Advanced Micro Devices Inc. in the high-end computer and server markets. Intel’s next step could be to use Transitive technology to take communications software—frequently written and compiled for RISC processors such as PowerPC and MIPS—and let it run transparently on Intel processors. Ultimately, it could start designing processors to assist the Transitive software."
