WHILE MICROSOFT and AMD are suggesting it will be well into next year before the final version of WinXP 64 is released, yesterday it started offering a fresh preview edition of its up-and-coming software which now supports both Intel and AMD 64-bit microprocessors, it appears.
It has also done some wizardry in the back office and changed the name of Windows XP 64-bit for Extended 64-bit Systems to Windows XP Pro X64 edition - certainly less of a mouthful.
The beta will take you fair time to download, even if you've got broadband, and includes support for Bluetooth and extended language support.
