Well, I'm wondering.. how compatible is the 64 bit era? Technology is moving so fast from SLI, Cross Fire, Quad Core.. what use do we have with these if most programs are incompatible or don't know how to use mulithreading.. what happened to 64 bit?
My question is: How compatible is Windows XP 64 with most programs today? I just moved to 4gb ram and I only get to use 3.5.. I want to move to 64 bit..
But it brought a good questions.. how long do you think it will take muli cores, and 64 bit applications to get where we are today?
