Whilst some sw might not support 64 bit, most, if not all, should
still run fine. Note that the Photosghop memory module does support 64
bit so that memory above 3.5 GB is available to it. There is also the
option of dual booting between Xp & XP64.

Also note that 64 bit sw is not necessarily better - it can often be
slower.

Does Vista (32 bit) offer greater memory support than XP? I understood
that the meory limit is due to the restrictions of memory
addressability due to the max size of 32 bit integers. If that is te
case, ther shoukld be no significant difference between 32 bit
versions of Vista & XP.
