Hee hee ... that's funny. Pity it's not true. It's a very fast OS but not that fast.

I've been using x64 for almost a year and a half now and I will never EVER go back to x32 on a permanent basis. I'm not even going to bother with Vista when (if) it comes out in January.
I've not had an issue with games on the x64 platform (with the exeption of early Starforce protected games). All my old apps worked on it too. When x64 first arrived on the scene, drivers were hard to come by but that did change very quickly. The only thing I don not have drivers for now is my TV card. As soon as they come out or I buy a TV card with x64 support, I'll never use x32 again.
