What might the issues be? We can just compile it for 32-bit if we have to and 64-bit will just have to run the 32-bit version
Okay. I would rather have it be compatible.  We can test it if we need to. I'm not as concerned as getting it to work for 64 bit, as getting it to work for 32 bit.

I have 64-bit windows 7, 32-bit windows 7, and 32-bit XP (Yes I gave it to my friend, but I can have him test stuff on it).

Well I'm not really concerned with getting it to work on 64-bit, it's just a command line program so we shouldn't have any issues.
Binder, sounds good :) You might want to test the most recent revision, let me know how it works

I got Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit edition. I have an older computer with XP installed but I don't feel like turning my bedroom into an oven again.

I used to use my laptop adapter as a foot warmer (and I wasn't wearing any socks at the time, either). Worked wonderfully well, too.

/\ a girl?! =-o

also, booting live cd's and then installing to the RAM should work as well, no? i have a collection of maybe 30 live cd's that i've built up over the years from different linux/other builds.

oh, and we can do multi-choice polls? this will make voting during contests so much easier =D
- Yes, we have two active girls, Xeda and Holmes.
- I usually just download the ISO and use it as a VM, unless I want to keep it for some reason.
- Yes, You can do multiple choice polls. I believe theirs an option of how many choices they can choose when you are making the poll.

I don't pay heating bill, just the rest of electricity. Plus it's so warm in here that even during Winter I barely need to heat. :P

If I turn a 2nd computer ON in that bedroom, I have to open my bedroom window a bit, if it's not frozen. :P (I have to be careful so it won't freeze while it's open, too)

Hi and welcome on the forums. Just as an head up, it is not permitted to double-post (posting two consecutive messages in the same topic with no reply from another person between each others) on the forums unless it has been 6 hours since your last message. It's recommended to use the modify/quick modify buttons.

I've got vista :( I would be using linux, but this computer is shared with the rest of my family so i cant. I have two other pcs with linux, but they're too old to be useful. Oh, and does TI-OS count? ;)
