CPU/Mobo What is the 64 bit advantage?

[astrix]

Why won't Intel's be able to run Longhorn sheriff? Just curious.

'cause Longhorn is going to be a 64-Bit OS and the current P4 except the 600 series are 32 bits processors

^^ Is it cause Longhorn Beta was 32 bit ? They will definitely have a 32 bit OS

Even i believe tht they simply cannot wipe out 32bit like this..tht'll take some time....tht way there shud be a 32bit longhorn or someother buckhorn..or...'uhh forget it'-horn for the lesser configs.. :hap5: hyeah:

Dont worry guys Longhorn is gonna come in 4 versions....nd 2 r gonna b 32-bit

Dont forget tht all the big software and hardware companies have somekinda understanding which they have to take care off...if they dump all 32 bit software down the gutter,who's gonna buy lacs of 32bit proccs shipped around the world to vendors..will they be eating dust..?? Noah...think about it...
