Basically Jeff in laymans terms, the 64 bit version of the application should run (extract, compress) faster than the 32bit version, everything else limiting, aside.

This just in, sidebar gadgets are sexy. I've got the windows calendar one, the built in weather one, a notes thing, and a gmail inbox viewer. I set them all to 20% opacity so they're out of the way unless I need them. Is there some sort of keyboard shortcut to pop them up? That'd be really useful for fullscreen apps.

edit: windows key + space!

I'm thinking of converting my sexy YAY Lefties! applications to a sidebar app and maybe make it work with animated cursors, since the vista circle thingy is hott with two t's.
