Great to have the 64 bit OS, but what programs are out there to take advantage of it? Virtually none.
My guess is this is at least 3 years out from rollout.

Hardware is always ahead of software. We didn't have real 32-bit operating systems and applications for a long time since the 80386/80486/Pentium became avaialble. Yeah, even the very first generation Pentium (60MHz?) computers were sold with Windows 3.1. Don't know how long it's gonna take to see 64bit take off.

Yep yep. But there are already people buying this stuff. Especially since for the fact that these AMD processors are fully 32-bit compatible.billyp007
