64 bit addressing

created by dew

(idea) by dew (7 y) (print)   ?   (I like it!) Sat Nov 13 1999 at 9:04:51

Using 64 bits to address a memory space in a computer, which could theoretically allow for billions upon billions of gigabytes of memory to be addressed. Will be expandable for years, and already used in the Sparc chips. Intel is moving to this with IA-64, but the Xeon chip uses 36-bit addressing, which is a silly hack.
