Has anyone tried the new Windows x64?

I wonder if it's worth installing....

what is it?

It's a platform like Windows xp or windows 98.

Only thing is that it's designed for 64 bits processors.

I just put together a new computer with an AMD 64bit 3200 CPU so as soon as all the bugs are out of the new 64 bit platforms I am definitly switching over.... the biggest problem right now is finding drivers that support the 64 bit system. Most video and sound cards don't support it right now.

I think that's because winx64 is still a beta version, so all available drivers for sound and video are also beta.
