*although there is x86 64bit and EM64 (something like that.. one being AMD and the other Intel... but yeah.. 64 = 64)
Mmm without getting all technical and nerdy and shit, a majority of non-server based EMT64 enabled cpu's are still only 32bit - they just use 64bit extensions to allow 64bit processing.
True 64bit processors at home is still a way off yet.
Yeah, no nerd speak...good one.
Ugh i could ramble on for forking days about this stuff.

Article alongside the red porka above...
Ohio-based engineers at Switzer Performance have released a new version of their P800 kit capable of working with the 997 Turbo's Tiptronic transmission. The transmission, normally only capable of handling up to 700 horsepower (522 kW), was totally rebuilt and modified to handle more power.
"When we released our P800 kit for the 997 Turbos, which makes over 800 horsepower (597 kW), we were forced to limit sales to manual-transmission cars," said company chief Tym Switzer in a press release. "This didn't satisfy the customers who wanted the kind of ultimate straight-line performance that the Tiptronic can offer, and, to be frank, it didn't satisfy us."
For the project, they added more friction surfaces to improve power delivery, improved shift speed with a new valve body, eliminated transmission slips with more clutches, and reprogrammed the entire transmission control unit software. The result is a Tiptronic 997 Turbo that sprints from 0 to 60 mph in 2.8 seconds, even when using standard air pressure, tires, and fuel.
Final calibrations are still being made to the package. The transmission itself could wind up on other Porsche tuner models as well, with Switzer believing that TechArt and 9ff may have an interest in the project.
The cost of the transmission on its own will be $7,990.

Joe Switzer is a member of the board I get most of my images from, that is a hot car.
I think I can get some videos if I ask nice enough.
I'm best mates with Jay "big chin" Leno. Im'a borrow it and make vids for you.

cute brakes. do they come in men's?
nothing bigger of a letdown is bigwheels and teeny, stock, unpainted brakes.
lack of attention to detail makes for a shitty show car.
