VMware has pledged to support the 64-bit extended architectures of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Intel for its virtual machine software running on both Windows and Linux over the next 18 months.
To start off, the Palo Alto, Calif.-based subsidiary of EMC will release later this quarter an update to its recently released VMware Workstation 4.5 product that supports 32-bit and 64-bit host operating systems.
Furthermore, over the 2004-2005 time frame, VMware plans to offer 64-bit extended support for its GSX and ESX server software.
