It's been a while since I read my A+ book so forgive me if i'm wrong.

I believe 32 and 64 bit arc's are usually determined by the following factors:

1) Register size
2) Number of bits computer can transer per MOV instruction...your bus bandwidth I guess Blush | :O

Anyways, most computers now are 32 bit because the internal registers are all 32 bit with I believe the exception of a few floating point registers which are 48 or 128 or something...

So you shouldn't have any backwards incompatiability issues when developing on a 64 bit arc becuz so long as your compiler compiles using common 32 bit instruction set it should run on your 64 bit machine or my 32 bit one. Kind of like how I could use 16 bit MOV instruction on my computer, but I could only move 16 bits at a time, whereas I could also use a 32 bit MOV instruction, but now be able to move 32 bits.

.NET uses an intermediate language...I can't remember what it's called... IL maybe...?

Anyways...the .NET interpreter would determine which actual instruction to send the processor (I believe thats the idea behind .NET) so you shouldn't get any exception becuz of a bad instruction when you compile apps using .NET.

Cheers Smile | :)
