Hi,
I have an Intel Core 2 Duo at 3 GHz with 2 GB RAM and a SATA2 hard disk at
10000 RPM and it works great!
I could run 64 bit versions of Windows on it, but I don't know if I would find
all the software I need for 64 bit, so I am using a common Windows XP Pro for
32 bit and it works fine.
Of course, if the OS is 32 bit, all the software will run fine as they were on
a 32 bit processor.
So go ahead and get it.
I had to choose between a Core 2 Quad at 2.4 GHz and a Core 2 Duo at 3 GHz
because they had a very close price but I've chosen the Core 2 Duo finally.

Subject: New Visual Studio Development Computer and 64 bit architecture
problem?
Hi Gang:
Getting a new DeskTop computer. WE won't run 64 bit, don't know about JAWS.
Would like a little power like 2 gig memory at least and a fairly fast
processor etc...
I'll be running Windows XP Pro, Visual Studio Pro and later VS 2008.
Any recommendations on either a newer computer model or an Intel Processor
you have used with JAWS or WindowEyes?
What about the
Intel® CoreT2 Duo Processors.
One of the computers used an Intel with Intel® Extended Memory 64 Technology
which mentioned something about 32 bit and 64 bit but what have you actually
worked with? One fellow at GW just said WindowEyes won't run on a 64 bit
machine but that doesn't tell me what it will run on. Everything with any power
seems to have 32 and 64 bit mentioned so I thought I'd better check around
before plopping down the greenbacks!
Thanks for any help:
