Yeah XP is, but nothing supports it lol.


It's like running Windows 95 and expect everything to work on it.

This has got to be the single most ignorant comment I have read on this subject for some time. Not only is XP 64 bit WELL supported, it would be my only choice if I was not going Vista.

Im usings XP pro 32 bit and don't really feel the need to change over to Vista. All my applications and games work fine, plus atm with SP3 XP is a very mature OS. So unless somebody can show me some benchmarks to prove that my system will get faster with Vista 64 bit I don't see the point of swtiching...

Ok well maybe some things support it, but if you have a choice between Vista 64 and XP 64 you are way better off going with Vista because it is becoming a more popular platform. XP x64 really did not take off as must as Vista did.

XP Pro 64bit is the best, but I would wait until Windows 7 comes out if I were to buy a new OS now. Dont throw your XP install disc away for the time being though. LOL.
