Post subject:  Vista 32 or 64
I run Vista 32 and have since the day that it came out.

Now for the dumb question.

Which is better and why -- Vista 32 or Vista 64?

I was thinking of moving up to Vista 64. I know that I can run more memory with 64. But is it faster than 32 with the larger path. Just would like to know before I spend my money

Thanks to all for any answers.

here is something you may not know, if you have a legit key for 32 bit vista, you can use that key for 64 bit as well. this is something microsoft doesn't want to tell you but it does work.

and 64 bit works fine, performs a little faster in some things, the extra memory available is nice.

i've been running Vista Business x64 for quite a while now. all in all it's about the same as Vista x86 except that it can make full use of my 4GB of ram.
