    Yeah, the memory gap? Has anyone actually suffered from this yet in the applications that they are developing? Someone was saying below how Win 64-bit needs a Gig minimum. However there is a thought that it might be able to page up to an exabyte at some stage, which makes the 1 Gig minimum seem negligible. I'm sure one of the reasons MS hasn't really pushed the 64 bit is that the market hasn't really maxed out on the 64Gig level, for the 32 bit OS. The other problem with moving to 64 bit is that the speed increases of RAM have been having a hard time keeping up with the exponential CPU speed increases. For us developers it means we can create worse bloatware with greater resource leaks I guess, unless you are one of those managed freaks. Regardz Colin J Davies

I would like to meet the developer who has worked for more than a few years who has not. Now do you mean Alzheimer's and or dementia. Dementia is when you can not remember where you put your keys and Alzhiemer's is when you are holding your keys and you do not know what they are for. Although both apply to the above so this is just a nit pik on my part. "For as long as I can remember, I have had memories. Colin Mochrie."

Funny thing is that .NET is not supported on the 64bit version of the OS. Now you think I'm stupid in saying that but have a look at caveat 1 at the bottom of the following page and look to see which items it applies to : http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/evaluation/features/compareeditions.mspx[^]

                    Hmm, was'nt .NET touted by MS to be the best way to write 64bit software for Windows? But I guess .NET64 will be supplied when 64bit machines becomes more common. Oliver
