Windows 7 - 64 bit - google chrome

Well, I'm blogging on my windows 7 64 bit system right now, things aren't that different, and if it isn't for that screen showing it's 64 bit, i cant even say it's 64 bit. so a normal user will not feel any difference on a windows 7 64 bit system it seems.

for all those rumors you hear over the internet..

Firefox 6 worked out of the box
Google chrome latest install works flawlessly out of the box

all of my drivers were in the mobo driver DVD - worked perfectly!

If your still in doubt whether you wanna move to a 64 bit system or not it's almost time to make the switch. But, as always if your having latest hardware (purchased in or around 2010/2011) you will have minimum issues with drivers. but if your rig is older than that, it would be ideal to do a Google search on 64 bit driver availability!

the good news is , 64 bit drivers of Vista will work fine with windows 7. Happy researching.

Windows now uses all of my 4GB - the truth to be toled even the white papers say that 32bit windows supports up to 4 GB of RAM, it actually is only capable of using around 3.20GB or less of RAM.

32 bit will become obsolate sooner or later as it happened with 16 bit. it's never too early nor late. this is the perfect time for the "bit switch"
