I think that would be on the box. I also think that Windows Longhorn is most definitely gonna be a 64 Bit operating system. Just out of interest, what 64 bit processor have you bought or planning on purchasing?

The new windows that will be 64 bit (codenamed longhorn) will be named windows xp x64 or something very close. It isnt even out yet though so you will have to wait.

There is no 64 bit Windows OS right now but you can feel free to run windows XP 32 bit until one arrives

. Some download the trial version of the Windows XP 64 bit OS but I'd just wait until it's finished and released to the public.

Damn ... Is Windows XP 64 Bit come out this year or next? I can't remember where I read about it

. If it is coming out next year (2006) then thats pretty stupid because I think Windows Longhorn is scheduled be released next year too. I bet they'll put Longhorn on hold till 2007 -8 and say that they released XP 64 Bit they couldn't possibly release Longhorn. Microsoft Spokesmen: "You should be thankful you got Win XP 64bit.
You will have to pay extra to get Longhorn now...HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHa"
