HP公司与Intel公司于6月8日宣布签订一项联合开发新一代微处理器的协议。两家硅谷巨人将组织其工程技术人员开发一种高性能芯片结构（很可能是64位）进行大批量生产。新的结构将保证与为HP的PA－RISC工作站和Intel庞大X86装机量开发的软件实现二进制兼容。Intel－HP开发人员试 HP and Intel Corp. on June 8 announced an agreement to jointly develop a new generation of microprocessors. Two Silicon Valley giants will organize their engineers and technicians to develop a high-performance chip architecture (probably 64-bit) for mass production. The new architecture will ensure binary compatibility with software developed for HP’s PA-RISC workstations and Intel’s huge X86 installed capacity. Intel-HP Developer Try
