This is the illusion of loading faster because Vista pre loads everything in memory, thus making raising the minimum specs and using more RAM. Vista in general does this regardless of 32bit or 64bit versions, and it also why vista devours your RAM.

I have never heard of Inventel lol. tlarkin, at the moment 64bit is just as supported as 32bit vista due to its popularity.
I would have to see hard data on that before I believe it. No company or organization has upgraded to vista really yet, and half the vista user base is using 32bit versions, and Vista isn't selling and PC manufacturers are not selling any laptops. All sales are down for this year, unless it is Apple their sales are way up. 64bit XP isn't even widely used at all. The home users only really represent a small percentage when comparing it to enterprises which run 1000s and 1000s of computers.
