Act and MAS are both owned by Sage; our Act consultant told us we need to upgrade Act to work with 64 bit; our MAS consultant told us we needed to update MAS to work with 64-bit. We went ahead and set up a test 64-bit system to test, and couldn't get Act to run. We could get MAS to run but 3/4 into the day the system started locking up. I'm still not convinced that it is the 64-bit thing causing the trouble, but as I can't prove it I'm going with what the other consultants are saying. 32-bit Win7 seems to work just fine on both counts.
