When I put Windows 64 on it, I found the driver support to be awful, but that should get better with time.

Do you see any better performance from the Windows 64 OS? I assuming since most programs are written in 32-bits you wouldn't but I was curious. I'm assuming that Windows "Longhorn" will be 64-bits but I haven't read that yet. |
