To buy or not to buy

[Kizzi]

A friend is thinking of buying a computer.

Is Longhorn 64 bit & XP 32 bit?

Therefore should he wait until Longhorn is released (sometime in 2006)?

Would one recommend running Longhorn on a Athlon 64bit computer?

 

 

Thanks for the advice

there is no longer such thing as longhorn anymore, they renamed it to vista a long time ago, and basically the faster the box, the better it will run, cuz vista is a HUGE power hogg, so faster=better for vista, and 64 bit systems run faster in 32 bit then any 32 bit system, also vista will be coming out with like 6 different flavors on one cd, i'm sure they'll think about all the 64 bit guys...
