Gateway ships retail PCs with 64-bit Windows Vista

You knew it was coming. Gateway, to our knowledge, has become the first large PC vendor to ship most of its retail PCs with the 64-bit version of Windows Vista Home Premium. The refreshed product line also brings back an Intel quad-core processor, which had been dumped by the company in the previous product cycle.

My GF bought a Laptop from Gateway and it only came with 32bit, which is fine for her i guess. She misses XP i think.
