In your 4th post, you are claiming that 32 bit is dead? Quite interesting...

Human

well it was as soon, i cant agree that 64bit will not soon takeover. why then we use everywhere where needed mmx,sse,sse2, compression,decompression of video,music, games they will push all to 64bit soon, even now i cant speed up my decompressor because my athlon doesnt have sse2 and we cant do compare of mmx regs and use je or jne without playing with code due only sse2 has instructions that modify flags directly, jpg decompressor refills data bucket with 16bit if we already have 15 bit and max is 32, with 64 we can refill with 48bit so 3x less updating,rol,and, etc. well we dont need 64bit for normal programs that dont require fast data processing but it will change over 1 or 2 years, when only 64bit cpu will be there. even microsoft droped 32bit support for vista. so only way will be xp x64 or drm'ware vista

I remember the time,when other HUMANS talk about the 32 vs 16 bit environment the exact way. But the domination of first one takes about 10 years  :P
