Thanks Dan,,,,,
I spent about 100 bucks to update my oldest XP PC (pc133 sdram)
vintage, to a First Generation Dual Core 2 GHZ AMD X2. Kind of surprised how well
the 64 bit Win7 works.
I actually don't seem to have any more software incompatibility
problems then on the 32bit Win 7.

Thanks Dan.
Off that same page is a link that covers the Windows 7 Easy Transfer Utility.
Looks like it will be a snap to migrate to a new computer and maintain all you data.

Just for the heck of it I installed Win7 beta build 7000 on my test-rig with vintage
2004 hardware: a Pentium 4 3.0GHz single-core contraption with 2 Gigs DDR2 memory
and a Radeon 9800 PRO AGP graphics card. All of the drivers were automatically installed
and everything works quite smoothly. I am very impressed with Win7 and I look forward
to the final product (I hope the forum hardware-police don't bust my chops for posting
this)!
