vbetts Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 I'm not seeing how it's microsofts fault either. Last time I checked, Microsoft isn't the only company that makes Operating systems. The only thing is, that their OS's are normally used the most.

scottishduck Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 XP 64 can hardly be classed as a 64-bit operating system. It was an experiment by windows to see if they could build a 64-bit OS, just so they could say they did it. It was never meant to be used as a main OS and I have no idea why anyone would. The 64-Bit era is fast approaching, hardware support is already here. However, if were talking mainstream home user we still have 6-7 years until Operating systems become fully 64-bit.

vbetts Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 Oh yeah, it won't be awhile until 64-bit takes over completely. But not any time soon, seeing that really it's only the Atom and the geode that are still 32-bit. Core duo and solo is too, but Intel doesn't make those anymore. But regardless what xp64-bit was made to be, Microsoft still released it to the public as an OS. {censored} OS, and would never ever touch it.
