Because you were fucking around with punchcards and waiting for those pieces of shit to spit an answer out while you ate lunch does not impress me.
You clearly have little grasp on modern computing other than what the occasional trip to Wikipedia and some shit publication like pc world tells you.

Actually, if you want to get technical, there were 64-bit Itanium CPUs dating back to 2001 I think and Athlon 64s hit back in 2003.
I currently use a 64-bit install of XP and used Server 2003 for 3 months. There is a snappiness in these installs over the 32-counterparts. Most games even those that have to emulate a 32-bit environment run better, now that most of the drivers have been ironed out. And apps such as Office and the Adobe suits run better because they have been optimized.

Sigh...
This is now getting painful.
Guess what? The speed of a CPU is fine and dandy, but it is by no means the ultimate determinate of a CPU's speed.
What would I tell you if I said a 2.66Ghz Pentium D (dual-core) runs faster than a 3.76Ghz Pentium 4? Wait, I suppose you would simply multiply 2.66 by 2 (dual-core, after all) to arrive at an effective "speed" of 5.32Ghz, roughly 71% faster than the 3.73Ghz Pentium 4, right?
Read up a little bit son and then get back to me.

Lol OK hold it right there junior.
There have been 64-bit (desktop) AMD or Intel CPUs for the better part of three years now and 64-bit versions of Windows XP and Vista.
I think we can end our conversation because "while i don't know exactly what that means, i know its the future for computing".
Well, Juan If you used a "Windows Based" System for 15+ years and still never figured it out! Not sure, How your a project manager of anything.

OK well real utilization of 64-bit only came about in the mid-90s, went into practical use a little thereafter, and is still not utilized anywhere near its capacity today.
Maximum PC is really the last good PC mag out there. Wired is OK every now and then. Sites like HardOCP, Tom's Hardware and of course SlashDot are all essential.
I'll skip the "still run better" part because a top-of-the-line mac will get smoked by a maxed-out boutique PC as I've already stated multiple times.
