Yea that is pretty much what I thought .. But like I said I had no choice between the 32bit or the 64bit; So can't look a gift horse in the mouth or Some BS LOL Thanx Larry Southerland wrote: Some of your old programs will work, but many of them (esp. any 16-bit apps that you might still use) won't. I'm using the 32-bit version because it *can* run certain 16-bit apps that I have to have for my business. In addition, I had to purchase a whole lot of upgrades for much of the software that I use and for those that I didn't upgrade, I often had to apply updates. Futhermore, some excellent programs (e.g., Avanquest's System Suite 9) will only run on 32-bit versions of Windows. In effect, you will probably spend a lot upgrading/updating your software. I've probably spent as much upgrading my software as I did for the computer itself. -----Original Message----- From: pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx[1] [mailto:pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx[2]] On Behalf Of Cosmic Sent: Wednesday, June 03, 2009 9:32 AM To: !!~*G's Tech*~!!
