Ric, Thanks for the reply, and the recommendations. I will give it a try and report back. I did not mean to suggest that The Uniform Server might not run on my x64 box, just that it might benefit from having an x64 option. With even x64 laptops all over the place, it seems that x64 will be supplanting the venerable 32-bit OS soon, and - since databases tend to run better with more disk (speed and capacity), processor (speed and cores), and memory (size and speed) - it seems natural to expect an x64 version of The Uniform Server to be coming out soon. Just a little more info on MySQL x64. It seems that MySQL 5.4 (including x64) has improvements that are actually even more significant that "just" enhanced memory utilization... While looking for the download on Google, I found an article that suggests that 5.4 will actually allow MySQL to fully utilize my processor, and even a second Nehalem processor if/when that upgrade occurs. "These are exciting times, if what [the] Oracle says is true" (a slightly modified, heavily plagiarized 'near' quote from the Matrix, borrowing heavily on the fact that Oracle purchased Sun Microsystems and Sun Microsystems purchased MySQL - so [the] Oracle... never mind). What do you suppose will be the fate of MySQL? Since Oracle sells their own database products, do you believe that this will simply be an avenue for them to play in the consumer-database-type-arena, or do you think they will try to get people to migrate to some level of an Oracle database? It looks like Oracle (now owning Java, MySQL, the Sun hardware, etc.) is about to take over the world!
