Can I have a Windows XP 64bit computer on my network if I have a SBS2003?  Can connect it to the server with connect computer and will it respond and act just like a 32bit system would?  Any problems with this?  We use CAD systems for design and are at the point where we would like to start getting the 64bit systems.  What about a 64bit system that runs Vista?  Is that possible yet?  Sorry if these are silly questions, I haven't had much time to browse your page or any others for quite a while.

Hey Mike...I believe you can add a 64 bit system no problem...We have one at our office connecting to a win2k3 server (32bit) and it works fine.
Jealous though, I would love to get a 64bit CAD machine...although I have found 2D programs don't work as well as the 3D ones. The main issue that we have found is finding the drivers to networked printers and devices. Vista on the other hand I would just take a look around, usually its a matter of certificates but I have not had the experience in that other than what I have heard here.
