Before we even were able to buy our fancy Athlon 64s, we had known it was coming, it was going to be big, there was a huge marketing effort on AMD and microsoft's part, etc. etc.
Now it's like it never even happened.
I know the driver thing is a pain - but we're moving this way as an industry, so you'd better get it started in that direction anyway.
Is x64 Vista going to get any install base, either?
I'm not pretending to care about 4GB+ memory on the home side of things, I just know that there are other benefits to say, gaming, in 64 bit mode (registers, etc).
