morrowinder,
You said:
I applaud MMOY for actually getting it to work, it is not easy.
In fact, Windows x64 installs / loads exactly the same way Windows XP does. The installer appears to be the same, certainly from the user's perspective.
Then, you posted:
I have a 64 bit capable Pentium D I recently built but I find no credible reason to even think about loading such an OS till VISTA ships.
So you clearly loaded the OS (32 bit version) with identical installation. So why are you applauding MMoy something that is "not easy", while you, a Dell gamer have managed to do? MMoy has clearly shown his competence in the computer area, and installing an OS is not something he can do in the background while he does other productive work.
I am sorry, but this is not the first disingenuous post from you, and I am sure it is not the last.
Anyway, next one of your twists is that it is not easy because my mother could not do it. It's like you are piling BS on top of BS.
Finally, what possible purpose would there be in installing it for 95% of the users out there? Bragging rights lol.
The progression of 32 bit OSs in the NT code base was NT Server, Workstation -> 2000 -> XP. So surely, those who jumped early on the 32 bit bandwagon did it for the bragging rights as the early adopters of 64 bit - NOT.
Anyway, maybe I give you more credit than you deserve, but I think that you are just playing dumb, that you are not really dumb. Something is telling me that your posts on this board are just part of some sick game you are playing...
