IA-64 is one of Intel's architectures.

EM64T is another of Intels 64bit architectures.  Happens to be  
(mostly) compatible with AMD 64 bit but it is Intel's.  Intel may  
have been inspired (read copied) AMDs, but AMD's is called something  
else.  "is" as in "belongs to", not as in "developed by".  AMD calls  
theirs something different and I believe the opcode mnemonics are  
different.
