Hi all,

Currently I have XP Pro 32-bits. Hardware is Intel I5-750 on a P55 chipset
with 4G memory.
I concider installing Win 7 Pro 64-bits, so I can use more memory.
Got a few questions he
a. Are applications on W7-64 with 8G noticable faster then XP-32 with 4G?
b. Does W7-64 allow a multi boot environment?
c. Are there more advantages of Win 7 Pro 64-bits over XP Pro 32-bits?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Another advantage not mentioned here yet is that Win 7 (both 32-bit and
64-bit) allows you to use DirectX 10 through 11. Windows XP is stuck at
DX9. Important if you play games.
