Wasn't there meant to be 64 bit support included in the SP? Or will that involve a whole new CD?

Thanks.

The Itaniam version is out there too, But I didn't supply it. To my knowledge the x86 64 bit Windows 2003 server is still in beta. M$ is unlikely to offer a SP for a beta product.

Yeah I was thinking of the x86-64 bit version. The Titanic version holds little interest I'm sure.

It'll be good to get the final release of XP Pro 64 bit, our image processing app really chokes on the 2GB or 3GB memory limit per process in XP 32 bit land.

So MS will only be 10 years behind IBM in rolling out a 64 bit server OS*. Yep, that's leading edge stuff alright.

*Actually, OS/400, now branded i5/OS, is 128-bit. It is merely running in 64-bit mode to work on the Power series of CPUs.

Oh, and unlike Windows, AS/400 applications have never needed a re-compile to take advantage of the 64-bit capabilities.

That's as relevant as the processor in my 4-function calculator being 128-bit. It doesn't matter a bit as it doesn't do anything I'm interested in.

So, you're not interested in web serving, java development, databases, PHP, Perl, Python, C/C++, print & file serving, email, LDAP, running Unix apps, or pretty much anything else that a server can do. Why are you reading a this thread?

The Service Pack is available through MSDN, the x64 operating system in late April.
