According to reports, Microsoft's 64-bit edition of Windows XP may finally be ready for a retail release on April 24. The operating system, which has been in extended beta testing, will be released to manufacturing in March, sources say.
Intel also has said that it will be releasing its consumer line of 64-bit processors around that time, including the Celeron 64. But according to the company, the timing is purely coincidental. AMD has been shipping its 64-bit Opteron and AMD64 processors for consumers since last year.
