I was recently reading Tracy Kidder’s excellent book Soul of a New Machine.
The author pointed out what a big deal the transition to 32-Bit computing was.
However, in the last 20 years, I don’t really remember a big fuss being made of most computers going to 64-bit as a de facto standard. Why is this?
It was noticeable for us because Exchange 2008 was the first M$FT product that only ran 64. That was our first 64-bit box
Of all applications - email needed 64 bits!
Kind of. Exchange is a memory hog.
Exchange takes all the memory you got.
