Yes, we're planning to complete the 64-bit wddm driver version right after we're done with the 32bit one.

Now the latest code of vbox support aero theme in vista & win7 32bit guests. How about 64bit win7 guest? Is it also coming soon?

VirtualBox 3.3 is amazing!

    You're right, we already have a kind-of working wddm driver for
    32bit Vista & 7. The major advantage of wddm driver is that no
    system files replacement is needed any more and thus no safe mode
    guest addition install is required. Also Aero theme can now be
    enabled in guests.
    The major concern so far is performance and we're working on it.
    Alexey Eromenko already gave you a brief explanation on how guest
    3d works. I can only add that wddm driver still uses wined3d
    internally and translates d3d requests to opengl commands being
    passed to host via "Chromium".

    I keep seeing commits going into SVN regarding a WDDM driver for
    Windows? It looks like it is getting quite a bit of attention, is
    that right?

    Another note, when doing 3D generation, is it using the host’s
    graphics card?  If so, how does that work when multiple virtual
    machines are running at the same time?

    Thanks,

    Geoff
