    Do you have a 64-bit processor? If not, 32-bit for you ;)

    Hi,
    I am getting a new pc and have been told to wait for Vista (not the add on to xp) to come out, something to do with drivers !!,
    The processor i am looking at is a "Intel core 2 duo E6600 2.4GHz"

    ps still not sure if a 64 bit is better  :-?

    64bit is much faster than 32bit, it allows for more memory addressing. Here ya go, read up! ;)
