With the launch today of Hyper-V - available only in x64 versions - I thought that now would be a good time to revisit the topic of "64-bitness."
I'm a technical product manager on the Windows Server team focused on Windows Server 2008, R2, clustering, and power management, along with a few other areas. In the past I focused more on our Enterprise, Datacenter, and Itanium editions, along with x64.
While it may take a while for client computing to reach the stage where 64-bit is the norm and 32-bit the exception, that day is coming soon for servers - and it may be today.
