Just curious: XP 64-bit?
I'm just a little curious about this: Is anyone using 64-bit Windows XP as their PC workstation OS? I'm wondering about program compatibility, as I would imagine that the applications developed for 64-bit are likely only developed for the Vista kernel...
Just curious, I'm not in any mood to reformat just yet.

XP 64 is my OS of choice. Current limitations that I have found are no support for certain key Matrox codecs that I need, and all Photoshop OpenGL features are disabled.

I am running XP64 on my laptop (along with both 32 and 64 bit Vegas) and am about to install it on my render workstation in the office.
Works GREAT!

Hmm... I wonder if I should look into downgrading. Only reason I'm using Vista is for the 64 bit support...

The question is, are you having issues with Vista 64? If not, I reccommend you stick with it, since it is going to have more support moving forward. If you are having issues, it may be worth it to experiment with XP64.
