SQL 2K 64-bit: Itanium and/or Xeon?

| Configuration: SQL Server 2000 64-bit on Windows 2003
Question: Will SQL Server 2000 64-bit run and ONLY run on servers with
Itanium 2 processors? This is what I read in the System Requirements for SQL
Server 2000 64-bit. So it will NOT run on Xeon. Correct?
I know SQL Server 2005 will run on Xeon.

| Yes the 64 bit edition of SQL Server requires one of the true 64 bit OS's
and an Itanium processor. SQL2005 64 bit does not run on a Xeon either,
just the 32 bit.

Andrew, I believe the x64 editions of SQL 2005 will run on 64-bit EM64T Xeon
processors. IA-64 (Itanium) is required for SQL 2000 64 bit.

| Sorry I meant a 32 bit Xeon not the EMT.

AMD Opterons are getting good buzz!
