Brian--I think you are right on-- when you say more problems from 32bit to
64bit.
I have a HP with AMD dual core and 4 GB memory. Had a free upgrade disk from
Vista Home Premium to Windows7 Home Premium with 64bit OS. The upgrade
worked fine and all the basic programs and internet searching works fine
when I
use Internet Explorer 8 32bit. I also have Internet Explorer 64bit--web
pages act
a little strange in 64bit--I don't think active x and java script are up to
speed to
run the web pages in 64bit mode. Anyone else notice this? I am just using
IE 32bit
and everything is working OK. Also, I don't think Logitech Cam and Skype
have
upgraded drivers for Win 7 64bit yet.

Meaning, does anyone care to comment on applications
that had to be dumped, repurchased in upgraded versions,
or replaced with something else on transitioning from
WinXP (would be my situation) or Vista to W7?

For comparison, I had problems only with two insignficant
utilities transitioning from Win98 to WinXP (not counting
any eventless reinstallations).

it's worth pointing out that if you are also going from a 32 bit OS to 64
bit W7 you are going to have lots more problems.
