BG and 64-bit computing
Bill, if you like 64-bit computing, then DO IT! MS is the only
platform that is SO FAR behind in 64-bit OS and apps.

UNIX switched to 64-bit at around mid-90's. Linux
switched at around the end of last decade. Only MS has so
much little support for 64-bit. They have announced 64-bit
xp that is scheduled for later this year and it will support
the humangous amount of FOUR processors! When UNIX
has been supporting 100s of PEs in SMPs since the 90's.
Linux is also getting there: IA-64 Linux is now supporting
512 processors SMPs.

More bloated head speeches by BG: his crappy ms windows
is going down in flames but he is giving the brave 64-bit
future speech. How rediculous.

Fix your 32-bit trash first!
