Remember 64 bit softwares (inc. OS ; win xp 64-bit) wont run on your current 32-bit hardware. U need to a get a 64 -bit precessor as well.
Even we linux has 64- bit OS (fedora core and unbuntu).

But remember , we can run 32-bit applications as well. But there will be issues. (my system even dont dont run 16-bit applications).
1. Apps that install or require 32-bit kernel-mode drivers wont work in this 64-bit thing.
2. U can't run 16-bit application as well. windows installer is one of them.

And remember u use 32-bit apps the most at present and there are not enough 64-bit apps as such.

What will u do with a 64-bit processor (AMD athlon FX) ?
then it was released.
What will u do with a 64-bit processor and 64-bit OS?
Hmmm...the point is when u dont have proper application to run on these... but i may tell even 32-bit is not properly utilised.

Hmm... lets see what windows XP 64-bit walla will have in it..., i mean the other apps, leave the OS.

Even when u have a 64-bit walla processor , u will be using a 32-bit walla OS and apps. Whats the use of it now? U wont find any difference in the performance.
