If you’re not running Windows 7 64-bit yet, please do so soon

I'm not sure I understand, is this a request? 

I thought you were all ready running 64 bit.

EDIT:  I've been running Win 7 64 bit since it was released, Vista 64 bit before that.

Isn't it gone in Vista 64?

Been on it for.... umm.. ages and while XP definitely is more fun to skin.. 7-64 pretty much rocks.

However I doubt many folks are going to fork out for an upgrade of an OS and possibly a PC to make Stardock's dev. workload easier.

Much as it would be nice.  I'm overdone, skinning 3 OS's for the price of one.

On it and love it.

If you're not creating 64-bit versions of your software yet, please do so soon. It would certainly make it easier to convince people to upgrade. It's not ALL on the consumer.

I agree.  Without good programs that take advantage of 64-bit, why bother upgrading?  It is a joint effort.

Best regards,
Steven.

You got my vote. I run Win 7 Home premium 64 bit.

Agreed, even tho, im actually not missing anything i would use.

Working on it. Have to what for tax return for a full upgrade (if wifey will let me)

Dont Vista 64 bit run more than 2? Ive got a V-64 machine that seems to utilize all 4 gig's

They are making a 64 bit version they told me so but it won't come out for awhile. I hope it can add more than just larger maps.

I am looking into getting it through the college I go to (I will need to visit IT to get some idea for the form that goes to Microsoft, it is confusing). Their 'update advisor' program has issues though (there was at least one Microsoft device driver it could not tell if it would work with Windows 7). From using it in the schools computer labs, I hate Win7's UI; hopefully like with Vista it can be set to use something more functional... like Windows Classic.

Give me 8 more months. I'm not building a new comp until I move. I'm thinking I'm gonna run 12 gigs of mem, among other things.

I've been running XP since it came, out. Tried Vista later, but it sucked. I paid a $50 premium  for the 'privilege' of reverting back to XP instead of Vista & I've never had a problem since.

Yeah, various testimonials swear that  win7 is miles ahead of XP (not to mention Vista), but budgeting for it is a problem & XP still does what I want minus the bells and whistles Win7 provides, which I don't need for what I do.

Yeah, everyone should upgrade so we can run all those cross-platform console titles better, right?

Yes.  So does XP x64, but that's poorly/unsupported by basically everyone.

I'm running Win 7 64 bit which I paid money for and I think I paid too much. It is miles ahead of XP, on the other hand it's still Windows with all it's cons. Perhaps I'll move permanently to linux next year, for now I need damned Windows to do stuff for school because they don't accept docs made in Open Office, I have to do everything in M$ Office.

Support linux please, don't focus on Windows only.

I have TWO computers with win 7 ULTIMATE 32 & 64 bit, several xp32 bit, one machine with vSHITa 32 & 64 bit AND xp 32 & 64 bit, the xp boxes are mostly special purpose, the shita is software compatability testing, and the win7's are my main gaming comps, and I have THREE machines with MORE than 4gb ram ie 2 at 8gb and one 12gb, but I usually use 32 bit for it's better legacy support with 4gb & less ram.

AND I have been one of the forum members asking for 64 bit games for the reason you want to move the customers to 64 bit, ie no longer having a fairly small amount of ram to work with and having to pick & choose what to use and how do we trim the FAT off of this object, BUT please try to NOT waste the large ram available in 64 bit

harpo

can't you just default open office to save in MS office format? - how would they tell then?

I could - Opene Office supports all MS Office documents but I take my comp and use it where they can see it and they sometimes explain options in MS Office which are in OO in another place, finding them could take me a while and that minute or two is important during a lesson because in the meantime we could start doing something else... So I'd better stick to MS Office for now.

Obviously I can't speak for Stardocks plans in the future, but I believe they've said more than once they're not going to do anything with Linux.

gosh, think that is asking a lot. I wonder how many people's computers have room for more than 2 gigs of memory. so, we're not only talking about upgrading the OS but upgrading the motherboard and purchasing more memory.

I have win7 64 bit with 12 gigs of memory and both anno1401 and civ5 will freeze at some point during the game if I have a map being played that is larger than standard size (single player mode).

I was going to say "hey wait a minute!!!" on the 2gb limit, but then realized you meant per application.

As for 64 bit, HEY!  can I wait to Christmas?  I just bought my wife a new laptop with 64bit on it (and 2 for the church which I am playing with now! )

my 32 bit windows 7 works well for me...many programs/games i use are either not compatible or have a hard time getting it to work on a 64 bit
