Yet another rumour about Prescott having 64-bit compatibility:

http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=11668

Still no word whether they be AMD64 extensions, or a totally different
flavour of x86-64.

I really don't buy this one, seems way to far fetched and based on
some guessing at vague details of a rumor from unknown sources. I
suppose stranger things have happened, but it still seems highly
unlikely to me.

You're not swayed by Hans de Vries analyses? I dunno if they've been
discussed/debunked elsewhere but....?
