anyone using it? I have a 64bit processor and was thinking of upgrading this weekend

Do you have any programs that can actually take advanatage of the 64 bit processor. I still don't know of many. If not I personally don't see the need to upgrade. -
Pros: no issues with 3-4GB+ RAM. Cons: A lot of 32bit specific stuff won't work right. Many video codecs, hardware drivers, and some software just shits the bed under XP 64.
Unless you really need more RAM support; there's no reason for it; it won't make things faster, and DEP is a hack anyhow.Comment

hmm...maybe I won't then, hahaComment

Con: Microcrap is going to stop support for XP.Comment

I never stole from my business partner, I've never fucked a tranny hooker in Costa Rica, I've never cheated on my wife, I've never used content I didn't pay for and had to shut my site down, I've never had a wife leave me...
And calling tech support is not the same as no longer supporting software you fucking idiot.Last edited by aico; 03-27-2008, 04:24 PM.Comment

Unless you are running 64bit apps no point to switching really.

Actually once apon a time, microsoft had wonderful paid tech support. You would pay $35 and talk to an engineer on the piece of software you needed help on. Saved a shit load of time but the last time I called about 4 yrs ago. It was some guy in turkey who spoke in broken english and knew nothing. last time I used it.Comment

2014. Is this seriously what you use to rip on microsoft? What is macs market share again?
http://www.macobserver.com/article/2...r=asc&start=50
2.5% in 2005 in that article.
Now.... Ok so lets look at this. Mac is SOOO fucking great right? I seem to recall they were selling apple computers BEFORE Microsoft was shit right? Just explain to me PLEASEEEEEE why after ALL THESE YEARS is their market share of the computer market less than 3%? Let me guess it was a HUGE conspiracy right?
And btw it takes a special kind of asshole to take bullshit personal potshots at me and my family due to a disagreement over a fucking computer. I hope karma creeps up and nails your ass just like its going to your buddies.

You're insane. He asked what a con was, I provided one, sorry I am no in the "loop" to know the exact date, I just happen to read in the news that day that they were no longer going to support XP and therefore force people into Vista. No where did I mention anything about a Mac being better or have any sort of computer disagreement with anyone. You have serious insecurities about people who use Macs. I didn't take any potshots at you, I was just simply stating things I have never done.Hmm neither have I. Btw 2014. 6 years from now if you are still using xp.

I see, now.
You're just an arrogant Mac user without any real reason, but you're dumb enough to buy the salesmanship that promotes it as 'Different.' You've got Steve's cock so far up your ass it's coming out your nose, and that is the only reason for your mediocre existence; so you can prove your worth by fighting with some dude on a PC in fucking Nashville.
Keep reaching for that rainbow, you fucking retard.Comment

a lot of programs like real raphsody don't work, and others you have to right-click and "run as administrator" to get them to work.. wireless network adapters also crash quite often.Comment

Pros - I'm running 64 on my lappie and main render whore now...
Definite improvements in mem handling without having to use bcdedit options.
All my 32 bits, codecs, whatever the fuck else work just fine... (if your's dont... i don't know, your retarded?)
Cons - Sitting through another format and sys install always sucks...
