Well articles I read in the technology guides in our local newspapers
for example consistently say that people should (if they can) get their
local technitions to build their computer systems for them but that of
course isn't always practical, the ragument for this being that the
customer can choose the components or operating system he/she desires.
Now I'm not absolutely familiar with PC Notebooks these days but the
one's I see reviewed have options to "upgrade" to Windows XP over Vista.
So what if you've got a machine which is capable of running a 64-bit
operating system, you can still load a 32-bit operating system onto it
as far as I know.
Am I missing something here?

Has anyone else noticed that if you are looking for a new computer
from the big box stores that it is becoming difficult to find a laptop
or desktop that is not running a 64 bit operating system. I have
always been a Dell person but in todays world don't see the benefit of
building one from Dell since there support is no better than that from
HP which is mostly sold at the big box stores at about 1/2 the price
of the dell. Even the ready made Dells at places like Best Buy are 64
bit operating systems. I have tried to encourage Doug to get WE to
run on a 64 bit system but it would seem that this is not a priority
item on the to do list.
