I can't even imagine running 32 GB of RAM.

When I upgraded from 512 MB to 1.5 GB, it pretty much clew me away.

The 64-bit system comes with the ability to supposedly run all 32-bit Windows software. As I understand it, it's like a VM, but handled at the core and hardware levels. I have absolutley no experience with it though. My instructors always said to wait on 64 until the majority of software was for 64 b/c there are compatibility issues. I tend to trust them a little more than the official MS version.
