I agree with Crash. Vendors know best. Some of my current employer's products are running with AMODE 64 because of other products now exploiting 64 bit. But I wouldn't necessarily call that exploitation. A prior employer of mine, Software AG, announced ADABAS 64-bit exploitation on the day of IBM's announcement. We had access to 64-bit capable (under NDA) a long time earlier, and we had beta customers testing this in the field. I would expect that data base products were amongst the first to first exploit 64 bit.
