Windows 8 interface

[MrChad]

I can see MS dropping 32-bit entirely (they've already done this in Server 2008).

128-bit is silly (no 128-bit processors/architectures in the near term pipeline).

I can't see MS having two separate interfaces. What would be the point?

This rumor comes up about every few days. The next windows will still support 32 bit and 64 bit. Nothing has changed in that area. What you are really getting with windows 8 is windows 7 redux -cloud edition

128-bit. lol

All of these rumors are based on this scientific theorem.

unless win8 interface is gonna take more than ~4gig of RAM there'd be no point in designing seperate interfaces. and if the interface does take more than 4gig of ram I am never going to buy it.

I could see it having a separate tablet interface, but that's about it.

I'm holding out for the release of a 1024-bit Windows. 1024-bit is way more secure than 64-bit.

If you install 2 32bit copies on your computer, you essentially get 64bit. You can has your 1024bit goodness right now.

And dont forget if you get a dual core CPU with a 3GHz core it is the same as a 6Ghz CPU!

if Windows 8 will discard 32-bit, why build a separate interfaces for its 32-bit?
