No HD-DVD, Blu-Ray on 32-Bit Vista
If any of you out there were planning on adding a Blu-ray or HD DVD drive to your PC in the near future to playback high-definition content on your PC, you’re going to be out of luck with a 32-bit processor and the upcoming 32-bit version of Windows Vista. Microsoft Senior Program Manager Steve Riley made the announcement today during Tech.Ed 2006 in Sydney Australia.
While I agree that this is foolish of Microsoft to do, I can’t see it affecting -that- many people. Chances are if you are willing to buy Vista, then you have a 64-Bit computer to begin with. Even budget PC’s sometimes roll in with a 64-Bit architecture! Update: Looks like the dev was wrong!
