Windows XP 64-bit

[Qiranworms]

Several Linux distros already work with 64-bit so MS has to play chatch-up.

There are even 64 bit Linux distros for the G5 Powermac already...Apple needs to get going on the 64 bit OS too...

Is there any difference in the 64 bit beta edition???

difference between the beta and what regular xp......yes it is faster at almost every thing by a coupple of seconds but it is not as good for games because of the shitty drivers but it is very promicing

will an amd64 work good on xp pro, but better in xp 64?

 

[amd643200+]

it works incredible on windows xp home/pro and works even better in windows xp 64 except on games as I mentioned above
