Just to clear the cobwebs about that Opteron thing, I got this
piece of information from my Compuware SoftICE connection:
SoftICE works fine on all new and old 32 bit hardware,
including dual Opterons, dual core Intels, multi core Intels,
hyperthreaded base
machines, and the likes.
Of course, for 64-bit OS’s you need Visual SoftICE in a
host-target configuration. VSI was actually designed from
scratch for 64-bit operation.
Hope this helps…
Alberto.
