Good Afternoon All,

AMD's 64 bit chip is rolled out and is commercially available:

In addition to speeding up processing a bit, wouldn't a 64-bit version 
double the maximum allowed RAM from 4GB to 8GB?  If so, this could be quite 
important for researchers working with very large data sets.

Any thoughts on the outlook for a Windows-based 64-bit version of Stata?  I 
heard recently that AMD is rolling at a 64-bit chip.

Tim
