[itdiscuss] 64-bit computing

[Jason Hand]

I think it's faster than 32bit because there's double the bits...  :)   
or is it exponentially double?  :)

We have clients that are 64bit but they are not running any older  
software and the 32bit interpreter handles the 32bit software fine.   
The only issues may be reliable drivers for older printers.

Your brother in Christ,
Jason
