This would be the transition state. <br><br><br>If Apple take a page out of sgi's play book. There will be both 32 and 64 bit binaries. This is in order to support all platforms.<br>

I see it as "non-news" - who cares if the OS is 64-bit... the OS isn't the app that requires all the power. Now Maya, Photoshop, FinalCutPro... THOSE APPS need to go 64-bit ASAP!<br><br>

Non issue<br><br>if you need 64 bit addressing you get it, if you need 32 bit addressing you get it.<br><br>just because the OS runs 32 bit doesnt mean an app coded for 64 bit addressing cant do that.<br><br>if it wasnt 32 bit then EVERY APPLICATION would need to be redone for 64 bit OS. XP is going to do this in 2004, and people just cant update the OS and go, they have to wait for every app to be recompiled and retested.<br><br>
