XP 32 is "mainstream" so there are many, many more apps, drivers, utilities and fixes 
for it.

XP 64 has identical security and similar stability. In theory it can be multiple 
times faster but in practice you are limited by internal bus speeds, disk access 
times, external network speed, memory speed and the like and on a general purpose 
PC you won't see a worthwhile difference.

Unless you are an avid gamer, or do major image / multimedia manipulations, I'd definitely 
stick with XP 32.

No doubt going back will be painful - that's just a law of nature :-(
