32 bit only - don't have a 64 bit workstation to play with, just a 64 bit
server recently purchased from Dell waiting for Exchange RTM. The 32 bit
Vista RC-1 actually runs quite nicely on a newish Dell laptop but I don't
care about Aero so I don't miss it. System is plenty hefty enough otherwise
but I still will not upgrade to Vista until I buy/build another computer,
which I don't see happening for a couple of years.

After furious head scratching, Patrick Schmid asked:
| Did you get the 32bit or 64bit build? Paul Thurrot gave the 64bit
| build a rather bad review, but the 32 one a pretty good one.
| I was put off by Vista B2 when it decided that my top-notch AGP
| graphics card was only worth a 1 in its hardware rating (not
| something I want to read for a 2 months old card that cost in the
| hundreds).
