pepiman is an unknown quantity at this point
System Specs

Windows 64 Vista Ultimate

Question:
Will all 32-bit applications run normally on Windows 64?

Example:
Steam games (Half-Life 2, TF2, Portal)
Crap Cleaner
Firefox
Office 2007


I've been building a new PC (see bottom) and I'm seriously thinking about upgrading to Vista 64 Ultimate (I'm a fan of the good 'ol 32-bit XP SP2)

ykill is on a distinguished road

I have Vista Ultimate 64 and I didn't have any problems with since 4-5 months. If you have a good computer it's one of the best Windows ever

No, some programs will have problems, but it's generally managable. From that list ccleaner, Firefox and Office all work fine in 64-bit, a quick google can probably verify compatibility for the steam products.
