Every once in a while I write about 64-bit computing, a development that is taking much longer to roll out than I expected (my prediction in my 1998 paper was 'a few years' and I have since predicted 2004 or 2005). This article suggests that we should target 2006 for the arrival of the new systems - and, of course, the massive replacement of hardware and software that will follow. But when it happens, notes the article, it will happen very swiftly. Via Corante.
