Also, the 64-bit versions can't run 16-bit software, and yes, I know that's 
getting *really*, *really* old, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are 
people out there (companies, especially) that are still relying on something 
16-bit. (In case anyone's wondering, and I'm sure some people are ;) : No, 
I'm not personally using Windows's 16-bit compatability for anything.)
