Perl DBD::Informix and IDS 64-bit
As I = understand it, the proposed specification strengthens the consistency = between UNIX system offerings as they evolve to support 64-bit = operations. In addition it will also allow software developers to easily = a migrate today's 32-bit solutions to next-generation 64-bit environments. Looks good so far.

64 Bit Windows And Athlon 64 On The Way
Well, a 64 bit data bus means that instruction bits can be fetched twice as fast. Two 32 bit instructions could be fetched in one cycle, for example. On a 64-bit system, the limit is lifted to billions of billions of bytes. Doubling the register size from 32 to 64 bit, is basically a consequence of that

A 32 bit processor can add two 32-bit integers in one machine instruction and with 32-bit addresses it can access 4 GByte of memory. A 64 bit processor can add two 64-bit integers in one machine instruction and with 64-bit addresses it can access 4G*4G of memory. The machine instruction set is different,

Panther to be 64-bit.
The 386 introduced a new 32 bit mode, where all of the normal data and addressing registers are doubled in size to 32 bits. Full arithmetic and logical operations can be carried out on 32 bit words, and there is a little bit of usage of 64 bit words. Because the addressing registers can also hold 32 values,

64-bit G5?
There are several reasons that 64-bit processes cannot load 32-bit DLLs and 32-bit processes cannot load 64-bit DLLs. 1.. The thunk layer would have to copy all parameters and data they point to into the low 2G of the 64-bit application, because the 32-bit DLL cannot address memory above 2G.
