I'm better off migrating to XP 64 bit instead.

Be aware that XP 64 is even less supported than Vista 64.
At least with consumer level hardware.

Hmm it's much more affordable.
I suspect Microsoft developed XP 64 bit as a sort of test bed for Vista 64 bit. That explains the lack of support. But so far I've been able to find drivers for XP 64 bit just fine.
And whatever runs on Vista 64 bit seems to be running in XP 64 bit as well.
Thanks for the warning. The reviews so far have been good even better than Vista 64 bit.

Personally, I would wait for Windows 7. Just as XP 64 looked to be a stepping stone to Vista 64,Vista 64 was the stepping stone to Windows 7. I did read that on or after July 1 of this year, MS will offer a free upgrade to Windows 7 for those that purchased Vista 64. In your spare time, snoop around on the net and see what people are saying about Windows 7.

Yea I want Windows 7 64 bit too. I will stay away from Vista though.
The thing is how much Microsoft is going to sell their Windows 7 64 bit OS? Most likely above 400 bucks which is a quite a sum of money for me.
