Re: 64-bit: More than just the RAM
Which is needed, when you consider how many *more* 'apps' the OS itself runs on a regular basis.
Never fear, the OS itself will force users to go to 64bit soon enough- but another benefit is that virtualization, both of servers and (especially of note for end users) desktops is taking off - so those that absolutely positively without a shade of doubt could not live without playing their little 8 and 16 bit games can still do so by virtualizing an older OS. |
