As much as I diss and hate Vista...if you HAVE to go 64bit, do Vista. XP's 64bit is the "first gen" of 64bit OS's and driver and general support isn't all that hot simply put. Not reliable enough and not worth the risk; Vista's prepared for it. If 32bit is fine, I prefer XP ;p If you do go with Vista makes sure you disable all the unnecessary shit they'll have on "ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE SURE YOU'RE SURE?"
At the risk of derailing the thread, note the bolded section above. I'm sorry but I have to just laugh at this. Did you have specific technical data to support this assertion or did you just pull this out of your ass? Does the difference between "shipping/stable" and "first release" just get thrown out with the bathwater?
