When is microsoft going to make a OS only on 64-bit computing not 32-bit i am
waiting for that to happening, Microsoft need to stop making 32-bit and start
on nexts gen-computing 64-bit and they to give the Companys the new software
to start working on 64-bit software projects when is microsoft going to do
this. everybody is tire of 32-bit windows and want the new 64-bit windows we
can not wait

Windows Server 2008 will be the last server with a 32-bit version. MS has
not decided if Vista will be the last client with a 32-bit version.
Probably not, though, considering the hundreds of millions of 32-bit
machines out there now.

Why does MS need to stop making 32-bit? What's wrong with it? MS is
supporting 64-bit sufficiently that they don't need to stop supporting
32-bit in 64-bit's favor. It is not either/or. Anyway, it is the
third-party software folks who need to increase their support for 64-bit,
not MS.

MS need start supporting 64-bit OS third-party software need to support for
64-bit i saw bill gates keynotes about 64-bit OS it looks more better then
32-bit OS i also use 64-bit OS its more faster then 32-bit and its more safer
then 64-bit OS all the Virus are in 32-bit that could be why mac OS X have no
virus, MS need to start sharing there Final Version of the OS code to
third-party because they can start develop more better software for the new
64-bit OS, When MS said something they don't always do it. i am happy for
Window Server 2008 is the last 32-bit version now people can be safer. I also
no more and more people have 64-bit intel Processor or AMD Processor.

32-bit software runs natively under 64-bit Windows, including viruses. OS X
doesn't have as many viruses because nobody cares about OS X. It has too
small a market share to be any fun attacking it. All the action is in the
Windows world.

MS isn't going to share any code with third-party manufacturers. It's code
is proprietary.

The makers of third party software are responsible for supporting 64-bits.
Gripe at them, not MS. MS is not some government agency that goes around
telling people what they have to do. The marketplace will take of that in
good time.

32-bit runs under 64-bit windows that a lie 32-bit software is Incomplete
with windows 64-bit and windows 64 is the future of windows kid for being a
MVP you don't no your windows that well

Nonsense. There isn't even a 64-bit version of Office and it runs just fine
on my Vista Ultimate x64 box. The 64-bit processors contain all the
standard instructions for running x86 software. That's why you see "86_64"
describing the Intel Core processors. That's also why the newer x64
instruction set is called "extensions."

In any case, if 32-bit software couldn't run there would be no reason to
have the WOW64 layer or to have the Programs Files(x86) folder in x64
Windows.

I don't want to resort to suggesting that you could drive at your IQ without
risking getting a ticket, but you do need to better inform yourself on
what's up these days with running software on the new operating systems.

All of you download 64-bit windows XP and see the speed of 64-bit and
performance of 64-bite use it for one day and come back here wote the good
and bad things about windows XP 64-bit ok and you will see the power of a
real OS and a Normal OS 32-bit system, The future of all OS is 64-bit and
look at the pass OS 32-bit

What the heck do you think the people in a newsgroup titled
"microsoft.public.windows.64bit.general" are running? Commodore 64's?

I think that it would be more important to improve Windows for the future
many multi core cpu's that will be coming out. Also hybrid cpu's that
include gpu cores or other types of cores besides general purpose cpu cores.
Also what about 128 bit? Wouldn't there be benefits to have 128 bit
functionality inside of a cpu? I don't mean about the amount of memory that
can be accessed with 128 bit addressing, but about math type computing.

I think you are confusing drivers with applications. drivers must be 64 bit
on the 64 bit o/s, applications can be 32 bit or 64 bit.
