Pick any PC seller and check the number of machines that come with 64-bit Windows as the default OS. You'll find that 32-bit is the exception.

>Any developer considering buying Windows 7 Ultimate should consider a Visual Studio 2010 / MSDN Professional subscription. It includes all versions of Windows, numerous licenses for each, VS 2010, and numerous legacy licenses. (Even including VFP 9! <g>). It can be had from Software Wholesale International for $599/year for three years.

>PS -- Why do you say 32-bit is pretty much obsolete? This topic came up not long ago here and some people.I respect, like Rick Strahl, said it isn't even such a good idea. I didn't think a lot of apps even run in 64-bit yet.
