Why go 64?

[||§§||Hand_O_Death]

I just found a good article about why 64bit processors are the way to go in the future.

It pretty much sums it up in the first paragraph. 32 bit can handle about 4 GB of RAM memory. 64 bit can handle 16.8 billion terabytes of RAM (Beat THAT Eraser). So maybe you SHOULD upgrade after all.

I have a 64 bit dual core processor, I use 32-bit WinXp however so I don't really benefit from it.

I'm always hearing people complaining about glitches and problems from their 64-bit applications such as games. Same thing with Vista, which is why I haven't upgraded plus I don't see why I should let my system's resources be hogged unnecessarily.

I'd like to upgrade my Windows but I'm still feeling nervous about it.

until EVERY thing goes 64bit there probably won't be that much benefit from it. I have a 64bit processor running 32bit windows. I got a 64bit version only after I had everything running so I never got to mess with it.
