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.

Best regards,
Ray
