The quad processor and 64 bit operating system is something i have been lusting after for quite some time. The major road block is that most of the software i run is still 32bit only so the only way to have a machine like that is to use virtual machine software and load XP Pro or a 32 bit version of Vista on it. Meaning i would have to switch back and forth all day.

I have played with windows 7 a little on my bosses laptop. The few minutes i spent with it were pleasurable because of a few new/cool features. My boss says that it is unstable and crashes from time to time so i will be joining you in avoiding windows 7 for a while.

I currently have XP Pro installed and i have no plans to change anything until im forced to buy a new computer.
