In this RunAs Radio podcast, Richard and I talk to Phil Peery of Microsoft’s Premier Field Engineering team about 64 bit operating systems. Phil also talks extensively about the /3GB switch for 32 bit operating systems — a tricky switch that has to be handled carefully. The discussion also digs into running 32 bit apps on 64 bit operating systems.
