I find this easier to use for quick lookups than the Intel PDF 
files, because any instruction is just 2 clicks away.


Just merge and split the PDFs so you have a PDF with just the 
instructions and a single bookmarks for each one. That's what I 
did.

I'm not interested in fairness, I'm interested in quick convenient access to 
what I need to know when I need to know it :-)


I did suspect a mistake in it, but it turned out that the mistake was in:

You mean ... like that 3600 pages "Intel® 64 and IA-32
Architectures Software Developer’s Manual" I linked in that
bug report earlier today?
Aside form being the complete and authoritative source on how
Intel's CPUs operate, it really doesn't have much going for
it. :D

And I do have a local copy of it. But to just see the hex code 
for an instruction, the clickable reference is much handier 
than navigating 3600 pages.


Indeed.
This Page is quite a find.
Thanks for posting it.
The Layout of the Intel Architecture guide, was actually a 
blocker for writing my ctfe-jit-backend.

Oh and a little tip from me as well, use the AMD64 manuals.
They are actually useful and can be learned from. Not so with Intel's.
