Hurrah! I always wondered why Itanium but never
x86-64. Very excited by
this; the investment in getting it ported over to x86 should guarantee us
many more years of OpenVMS goodness going forward; can't wait to run
OpenVMS on my Atom machines!! ;)

When Compaq announced the port to Itanium, x86 was still 32-bit, while OpenVMS had been
running on 64-bit Alpha's for nearly a decade.
