I have 64 bit in my computer and it is wonderful. It moves right along with
what I want it too, but I still think some computers will do much better
with 32 bit wincows7.
I have 8 gigs of random Access Memory and really enjoy my computer.

For me personally I found Windows 7 64bit didn't run as well as 32bit and
have reverted back. I have 4GB of ram which I think is the suggested minimum
for 64bit. As I understand it though unless your software is 64bit you can
actually find a speed reduction, not an increase. That was a couple of years
though and I'm sure software is moving on now since most new computers have
windows 64bit installed.
