Originally posted by JesusYou can, however, run your 32bit apps on a 64bit OS. So if you want to switch to 64bit, you won't have to buy/download/wait for 64bit versions of all your software and drivers. You can just use all of your 32bit apps and install a 64bit version every now and then as soon as it's stable enough for your needs.

Problem is that without the 64bit drivers, eventhough most 32bit software can run on a 64bit OS, I won't be able to use any hardware (burner, scanner, printer, etc). So I'd better wait for the drivers to come out for full compatibility before switching to 64bit.
My other option is to switch to a Mac, which is 64bit and its OS is way more advanced than Windows.
