ROFL at Windows XP 64 bit mate !!!
it does not exist YET and won't be out before the end of 2005, by this time the Prescott will have 64 bit instructions enabled, and YES, i work in IT
unless you are the only person in the world to have your new PC with the super 64 bit processor and the Windows XP 64 final version which is not finished yet ?

I also got Windows XP 64 on a CD mate. I was speaking of a FINISHED system. I'm sure you know what i mean, and i don't need a copy.
Anyway if you sure you're right, it's perfect.
Don't mix up Alpha, Beta, RC, and final versions mate. You seem to forget this
XP64 is ALPHA ! very far from entering the "gold" phase.

Porkie,
Pretty much anything with a P4 1.2ghz and upwards and a good graphics card will probably play it very well.
