Or the i386 build. I have both installed, with a shared data partition. 
That way I can start developing 64-bit stuff but can drop back to a full 
32-bit installation for apps with outstanding compatibility issues. I'm 
doing some game development with a commercial engine that's not yet 64-bit 
ready and for that I boot into the 32-bit system. (The system is actually 
triple-boot, with WinXP64 installed.)
