Is There Any Realistic Benefit Using 64 Vs 32?

Sep 7, 2007

Vista never uses more than 2 GB on my System, for all the 4 GB+ talk. The virtual memory/page file is as big as ever. Drivers take for ever to come out, and are usually last. You'd need an electron microscope to notice the additional features in 64 bit editions of games versus their 32 bit counter parts. Am I completely missing the point of 64-bit Vista? What percentage of Vista installed today is the 64-bit edition? Is it increasing?

Upgrading Workstations To Vista, What's Benefit?

Mar 8, 2008

I'm thinking of upgrading my workstations to vista, but my question is, what's the benefit? I've worked in IT for awhile now and seen some great improvements in operating systems over the years. Upgrading from 2000 to XP, there was a clear benefit, but I can't see one from XP to vista. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy with vista, but I don't want to have to go through the hassle of imaging about 2,500 workstations if i don't have to.
