Very naive and ill informed view ....

It's not just hardware.

64bit OS cannot run ANY 16 bit code. This means that apps that still rely on it (yes... plenty do) will not run.

Also... driver support, even from a lot of top brands, is shakey at best.

I bought Vista Ultimate ... it comes with two DVD's. One 32bit... one 64. So if the time comes, I will be able to upgrade.

One more thing ... Applications have to be 64bit to actually take advantage of the 64bit technology. Since those apps are still few and far between ... there's very little reason to go 64bit.

That's the truth. Don't buy into 64bit until it's standard.
