HI all.
I just don't think 64 bit is ready for prime time yet. Although many
programs work, they seem to have issues. Or they did with me at least. I
had problems so serious with my Windows 7 64 bit installation that I
decided to downgrade to 32 bit. I may try 64 bit again in the future now
that development has gone some way, such as a new version of both NVDA
and JAWS. But I feel if it aint broke don't fix it for the time being.
I'm not saying you will all have issues; these are just my personal
feelings on 64 bit.
Take care.
Chris H
