This Message is especially for the People of Equis.
My Computer Technician told me to ask you the following things:
As we know exist from a Month Ago the New Windows XP in the 64 Bit Technology.
Also coming the New Intel Pentium's 64 Bit Technology.
Equis Team has test the Metastock 9.0 Pro for E-Signal 32 Bit, to work in a System with the New Windows XP in the 64 Bit Technology, together with the New Intel Pentium's 64 Bit Technology ?
If Yes, the Metastock 9.0 Pro for E-Signal 32 Bit, work very well with the above combination?
Dear Patrick, do you have opinion about that?

They even tested it with quad processor servers .... Yes

:-k It works, not better not worse ....

if you want 64 bit apps and 64 bit OS then you should go buy a Macintosh ...
Right now all this talk of Pentium 64 bit and Windows Longhorn is just hype and you should not expect this to be super faboulus. Because it won't be.
Sure there will some cool new tricks, like 3D menus ( or all the stuff you have seen on MAC OSX that's not on Windows XP already ) but I'm not holding my breath for it ...

Let me add this, the problem will be wether or not MetaStock is compatible with Windows Longhorn, and whenever microsoft stops goofing around and actually release a final version then we will have a better picture.
Since XP has been their most stable and reliable version, I'm sure they will take their time before they get people upset at them again.
I downloaded an alpha version 6 months ago ...
I will tell you that they better have changed a lot of things if they want me to upgrade. Because what I sawwas a bad rip off/mix of red hat/mac Os X

Well, I remember back in 2001, Microsoft said that they were planning on replacing their NT kernel with the UNIX kernel ... it's about time! I'd like to see a stable version of Windows. And, as you know, Apple already shifted to UNIX with OSX. That is probably what you are seeing with the alpha version. Sounds good to me.

If you want 64-bit processing, but don't want all the headaches of trying to find 64-bit software and drivers, then go with Windows XP 32-bit OS on a 64-bit AMD processor. AMD 64-bit processors can handle the 32-bit OS better than Intel's 64-bit processors. Intel prefers a 64-bit OS, so you may notice a slow down running the Windows XP 32-bit OS. That's the latest news I've heard.

gmb1994,
I agree that Linux is pretty good. But I don't have to pay for linux, I can create my own distribution, specifically tailored for my system ( using gentoo or other ... ) for free ( well except all the time I loose geeking around :D )
So why would I pay Microsoft any amount of $ for something I can get for free ...
Let me say that a soon as the mamba file sharing application between windows and linux becomes reliable and performant I will start switching most of my personal stuff to linux. There is not much that holds me back from letting go of my windows xp ...
I don't know, what do you think?

I can agree with you for a thousand reasons, except for the one big one ... I use a lot of Windows-only compatible software and Windows emulators aren't enough. So, for the time being, I will have to work Windows.
