[quote]Let's say I have two 32 bit applications, and each one uses 3 GB of memory.[/quote] Actually you might be able to with the PAE switch enabled. But there is a downside, the kernel has to manage that additional memory table which will reduce overall performance a bit.

I wouldn't even bother worrying what businesses adopt , no matter what OS it is they are late to upgrade to it. Be it Vista or WS2008. Even hardware wise they are slow on adoption. As it stands right now WS2008 is [u]the last[/u] server OS to have a 32-bit/64-bit version. From now on server-side operating systems will be strictly 64-bit, but with that being said they can run 32-bit applications flawlessly. It honestly wouldn't surprise me that Windows 7 could be t
[quote]Make it 64-bit only. PLLEEASE! [/quote] Looks like it won't be this time around. I had figured that they'd being doing this for sure. My guess is if it is going to have 32-bit then it may be the last, or close to it. Many people are using Vista 64-bit unlike XP 64-bit. It's popularity is rising so I'd imagine that it could very well be the standard in the few years to come. [quote]It apparently has a new Start menu and taskbar. [/quote] Sort of, they are just mo

His own family says he was Muslim when he was younger and doesn't know why he is denying it. What more proof do you need?. If he acknowledges he is Muslim he will lose votes due to our conflict with Muslim Extremists, which is why he obviously hasn't. [quote]OMG! McCain is immortal![/quote] Neither is Obama, for all you know he has Cancer and could end up dying 6 months into his Presidency. It's not like he hasn't hidden anything from the American people, right? [e d

I didn't post it because I thought it was legit, re-read what I had said.
[quote]OMG... you did not just sit there and relate Obama to Hitler with the past that the Bush family has with Bush's grandfather laundering money and doing business with the Nazi's... downright unbelievable...maybe you should read this...[/quote] I didn't make the image. I said it was funny, and I could care what Bush's grandfather did as it's in the past. Nothing you can do about the past, not that 1 article is going to confirm anything for me. I care a bit more about the present
[quote]You can tell the election's getting close. More & more foaming at the mouth every day here.[/quote] I just find it saddening that people actually believe Obamation's story of sunshine, hope and of course "change". A word of advice, just because its "Change" doesn't mean it's for the better. I also got a kick out of these: [e digicons]XD[/e] <img s
Technically not just Bush/McCain, try congress. I'm pretty sure they have a little TINY bit to do with that. I hate how everyone points the finger at Bush when yeah he was part of it, but it's not like a majority of our govt. didn't approve of his plan. Congress is Democratically controlled, so why haven't they pulled the funding for the Iraq war? Simple. If they had pulled the funding when they gained control of congress we would have had to pull out before the electio
[quote]He's not a terrorist. He's not a Muslim. He's not corrupt. He's not a liar.[/quote] You are in for a rude awakening if you really do believe that. First off, Every politician lies and is corrupt. So that's two right off the bat. Second off he may not be a terrorist of sorts, but you generally find out about a persons true personality by the people they associate themselves with. His wife is racist, listen to her publically speak and you'll notice as she isn't as good as Barr
Other than unloading WB when I play BF2, nope..

No need to personally attack what I said, I was simply stating a fact Snidely. [e digicons]:hrmph:[/e] ID pretty much went into some of the details. Keep in mind that nothing he stated is of an opinion, it's well known as long as your main source for information isn't a televised news program.
It's not an automated update, you still have to click "Update" in order for the update to start. This just goes to show that people don't even care to look at something as simple as System Requirements before updating/installing something. It takes a few seconds to check them out rather than an hour trying to fix a problem that is easily avoidable.
[quote]steve, it's a known fact that health care in much less expensive in canada and england and has been for years. sure, it sounds nice......and it is. healthcare in the us sucks. i have great insurance. i ralrey have to pay much of a medical bill but i'm far luckier than most people in the country.[/quote] You do know that the quality of health care is a lot lower though, right? Not to mention it will be ran by the government. I'm sure we all know what happens when the government
It is a failure though, taxes get raised to pay for it (NOTHING IS FREE!) and the quality is lowered. It's a well known fact. [e digicons]:|[/e] Sure it sounds nice, but when it comes down to it the cons outweigh the positives in my opinion.
So starkers you'd prefer the most liberal senator of 2007 (voting records don't lie) and a racist hypocrite who can't get any more two faced even if he tried rather than a stubborn old man with a temper? Interesting, I find it to be the other way around. Neither are capable of being the President, but the last thing we need is someone like Obama. Just my two cents, im sure you'll try and tear apart the entire post. Not that it bothers me. [e digicons]^_^[/e] I also fin
[quote]Am I supposed to look up system requirements for every update of my software?[/quote] Uhm, yes? I thought that was a given? Especially when XP 64-bit is the OS you run.
[quote]nope just "XP" means all version of XP, how am I supposed to know what Stardock considers the standard?[/quote] Stardock doesn't consider it a standard, the industry does. Believe it or not XP 64-bit was a total flop. It's a very small nitch market that companies are providing a supported product to. Since 32-bit is still the standard in todays market it's safe to say that if something is labeled Windows XP is only 32-bit. I think the dead giveaway that WB 6.3 had no XP
[quote]That way I could also argue for no 32 bit support for XP, as 32 bit was not specified, might as well not support XP, Hmm?[/quote] Not really considering 32-bit is the standard. While Vista 64-bit is gaining popularity, XP 64-bit hasn't shined one bit. So generally when something is listed Windows XP that means 32-bit unless specifically stated like it does with Vista.
I love the driver signing enforcement which 64-Bit has, and by love it I mean I love the fact that route kits are now GONE FOR GOOD when 32-bit dies off but at the same the the enforcement can be annoying with certain programs that require a signed driver when they dont seem to have them (used to be a big issue with Rivatuner which changed eventually).
