Most software runs fine on 64-bits, it's the drivers which are a worry. One
of XP64 (and Vista probably as well), is it's better memory management
especially when handling large amounts of data. Hence it's good for
servers, but would also run fine when handling video-data.

Reports always say it runs a bit faster, even when it's 32 bit.
