XP 64-bit only comes in the Pro version.
I'm wondering if this may just be a translation issue. The 64-bit
extensions were originally referred to as AMD extensions, simply because
Intel didn't have a 64-bit CPU out at the time. That naming convention may
just be AMD's reward for being first to the party.
Peace,
