Most likely, your real processor comparative reference isn't the Core Single or Core Duo; it's the Pentium M. Why are you running a 32 bit OS and 32 bit apps on that thing? A better question, I think, is why do I have a 64-bit processor running normal 32-bit software. That answer is, "that's what came in my new

There is no difference between an AMD64 instruction set and an Intel Core 2 instruction set in that regard. I use both AMD64 Athlon x2 and Core 2 Duo to run 64 bit Vista and 64 bit XP. The Vista x64 dvd would only be free if you purchase Vista at retail. It is not free if your computer comes with 32 bit Vista

I will also give you a little bit of knowlege on the core duo chips. Yes they are 2 32bit processor cores embedded on one chip. 32 + 32 does equal 64 but with these chips, each core acts as a seperate processor. They still will only run 32bit programs. What makes them faster than the older single core chips is that

We've also been using Exchange 2007 (64 bit only), Server 2003 (64 bit) VS and SQL Server 64 bit and IE7. Everything else I have is 32 bit. So the install has to be a 64 bit one. If you are not using a 64 bit OS on your Core 2 Duo machine it will run like a dog. That is your fault for not specifying when you

32 bit vista can't address more than 3.1-3.5 GB RAM
I assume that the Dual Core Intel piece is 32 bit and the Dual Core 2 is a 64 bit piece. Nope. Dual core versions of Pentium4/Pentium D and XEON are 64bit. Core Solo/Duo (mobile processors) are 32bit only. Core 2 (notebook and desktop) is 64bit. Will Vista be a dual 32/64 bit OS or will a high cost and poorly

I disagree. I qualified myself with "since in layman's terms a computer is the whole user experience of operating system and hardware combined".

Anything you build today should be dual core. If you build dual core as you should, then the question of 32 bit or 64 bit should be moot. AFAIK, there is no dual core 32-bit processor.

It gets a bit technical, but there is a big difference between something made from the ground up as 64-bit versus something that was made 32-bit and just recompiled 64-bit. And it is also a compiler function to determine whether 64-bit or 32-bit registers should be used for a particular operation.
